Tune in to The Late Late show with Craig Ferguson tonight to see Sara Watkins perform "Where Will You Be," the self-penned closing track off her self-titled Nonesuch debut album. Also on tonight's show is actor/comedian Bill Gardell. The Late Late Show airs on CBS stations across the US starting at 12:35 AM ET.

All summer, folks all across the US have been enjoying Watkins's live performances with Garrison Keillor and the cast of A Prairie Home Companion on their Summer Love Tour, which continues through September 12. This weekend, the whole group will head back to Prairie home turf for the radio program's annual live broadcast from The Minnesota State Fair, broadcast on public radio stations across the country. Watkins promises, via Twitter, to add two songs to her set for the occasion: one by Harry Nilsson and one by Randy Newman. To find out where A Prairie Home Companion is playing near you or listen in live online Saturday at 6 PM ET, head to prairiehome.org.

Following a recent Summer Love Tour stop in Texas, the San Antonio Express reported: "A packed house at the Majestic was treated to an evening of duets between Keillor and smoky-voiced bluegrass vocalist/fiddler Sara Watkins, as well as bursts of poetry and live performances of some much-adored elements of the radio show, including 'Guy Noir, Private Eye' and a rambling 'News from Lake Wobegon.'"
