Singer/Songwriter, Author, Activist Nellie McKay To Perform At EMF Fringe Series

Singer-songwriter Nellie McKay has made a name for herself combining smart lyrics on unusual topics to create a sound all her own that's tough to pigeonhole.

She's also an actor, author, film score composer and activist among other things. Her latest CD, My Weekly Reader draws on the rebellious spirit of the 1960s.

Nellie McKay spoke with David Ford by phone from her home in Pennsylvania. She's the headliner for this season's EMF Fringe series and you can hear her live in concert Saturday night, August 8^th at 8pm at West Street United Methodist Church in Greensboro.
