Chris Thile was a guest on WNYC's Leonard Lopate show today. He spoke with Lopate about his forthcoming album, Thanks for Listening, due December 8 on Nonesuch Records, shared some tracks from the album, and performed the album track "Falsetto" live. Thanks for Listening is a collection of new studio recordings of songs originally written as Songs of the Week on the public radio show A Prairie Home Companion, of which Thile is host.
