Sara Watkins, whose new album, Sun Midnight Sun, was released earlier this month in North America on Nonesuch Records and will be released worldwide on Monday, celebrates the occasion with a performance on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson. Tune in to CBS tonight at 12:35 AM ET to see Watkins perform "When It Pleases You" off the new album. Also on tonight's show: Alfred Molina. For more information, go to cbs.com.

Sun Midnight Sun, Watkins' second solo album, was released earlier this month on Nonesuch. Produced by Blake Mills, it features guest appearances by Jackson Browne, Fiona Apple, Sean Watkins, and more. The album includes songs like "You and Me" written by Watkins, several collaborations with Mills, songs by Dan Wilson and Willie Nelson, and a duet with Fiona Apple on The Everly Brothers classic “You’re the One I Love.” USA Today calls the album "flawless" and "a gorgeous pop masterpiece ... pure musical pleasure." The Wrap says "it might be the finest album of the year."

As noted yesterday in the Nonesuch Journal, Watkins joins Garrison Keillor and the cast of A Prairie Home Companion for two shows at Wolf Trap's Filene Center in Vienna, Virginia, this weekend, including a live broadcast performance on Saturday; also performing is Watkins' Nonesuch label mate Shawn Colvin. For additional details on this and other upcoming live shows, go to nonesuch.com/on-tour.

To pick up a copy of Sun Midnight Sun, head to the Nonesuch Store, where CD orders include an instant download of the album; MP3s and lossless FLAC files are also available there.
