There's a rich tradition of singer-songwriters in this country and right up there with the best is Tamara Lindeman who performs under the pseudonym, the Weather Station. Her lyrics, like other amazing storytellers out there, stay with you for days because there's just so much vivid detail and emotion packed into them. Last week, Lindeman released her new, self-titled album, and it's one of her best yet. 

Today, Lindeman and her band joins Tom Power in the studio where she will perform songs from her latest record and discuss her approach to songwriting.
