Studio Performances 
Laura Veirs in-studio at OPB, 6-15-07
Our very first opbmusic session, featuring recently new Portlander Laura Veirs. Veirs and her band released her sixth album in 2007, entitled Saltbreakers, in the process adding some new elements to her sonic palette on songs like the electronically textured "Don't Lose Yourself," and the exquisite and ghostly "To the Country." We talk to Veirs about her roundabout path to becoming a musician, the influence that having a fulltime permamanent band has had on her music, and the opportunity she and the band had to record in Johnny Cash's studio.
