This just in from Richard Krawiec:

Fleur de Lisa will be on NPR's The State of Things Friday, Dec. 18 between noon & 1, probably towards the end of the show. They will be discussing their work and singing new songs, not on the Willow Songs CD. They are finishing the recording of their new CD, which features work by Basho, Issa, Japanese Death poems, Roberta Beary, as well as work based on free verse poems by Jaki Shelton Green and former NC Poet Laureate Kathryn Stripling Byers.

Hi Curtis
Thanks for posting that info about Fleur de Lisa on NPR. For those of us who can't listen live, there's an archive available at wunc.org/tsot/archive/.

I just might be buying myself their CD for Christmas!
