World Café Celebrates 35 Years with Special Programming

“World Café has always been about discovery - and rediscovery. Even years into hosting the show, I often still have moments where I am amazed by the depth of World Cafe’s archives of performances and interviews,” says host Raina Douris. “Getting to share gems from the archives as we celebrate World Cafe’s 35th anniversary, while continuing to add to them with conversations and sessions from exciting new artists every week, is such a joy and a privilege.”

On October 14, the 35th anniversary of its first broadcast, the show will mark the occasion with a new interview and performance from Remi Wolf, whose album Mud will be released on October 9. The anniversary month will also feature four episodes of Backtracking, a new series that asks artists to select songs from their own catalog in response to different prompts. Artists then share the stories behind the songs they’ve chosen. The program will also look back across all four decades of its history with a series of needle drops highlighting music from the 1990s, 2000s, 2010s, and 2020s.
