Summary: <p>Mandolin Orange is the folk duo of North Carolinians Andrew Marlin and Emily Frantz, who blend traditional Americana roots music – folk, country, bluegrass – in their warm and intimate, bittersweet acoustic songs. They met at a bluegrass jam, and have been known to wield mandolin, guitar, banjo and violin between them, with Marlin mostly doing lead vocals and Frantz, who thinks of herself as a harmony singer. Mandolin Orange sometimes expands to five instrumentalists for the live shows, but still embrace their “songwriter pickin’ music” (their Twitter words.) The expanded tour version of Mandolin Orange joins us in-studio to play new tunes from <em>Tides of a Teardrop</em>. -<em> Caryn Havlik</em></p> <p><em>Watch the session here:(Set list: "Golden Embers", "The Wolves", "Late September")</em></p> <p><em> </em></p>
