Sarah Jarosz shines on the ‘Austin City Limits’ studio
Hat tip to colleague Matthew Odam over on his blog the MO, who attended Tuesday night’s taping of the Sarah Jarosz and Steve Martin episode of “Austin City Limits.” Martin’s set was a condensed version of his Sunday night show at the Long Center, but Odam has nothing but good things to say about bluegrass phenomenon Jarosz.
“When she introduced a song that she wrote as a response to Hurricane Katrina - Broussard’s Lament - it took me a second to do the math,” writes Odam. “Katrina was in 2005. Jarosz was 14 at the time. The righteous, passionate lines from this devil-went-down-to-New Orleans tune were not the work of your typical high school student.”
Surf over to the MO for the whole recap. The episode will air in October.
