Wanda Jackson will be the guest on NPR's World Cafe today. Tune in to hear Jackson perform songs from her recently released Third Man / Nonesuch Records debut album, The Party Ain't Over, and talk with host David Dye about recording the album with producer Jack White. To find out where and when World Cafe is airing near you, visit npr.org. You can also hear the show streaming today at 2 PM ET at xpn.org.

Jackson resumes her US tour later this month at Lincoln Hall in Chicago and continues through the spring, including performances at the Stagecoach festival and at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's annual benefit concert in May.

She will also be featured in a new exhibit at the Hall of Fame titled Women Who Rock: Vision, Passion, Power, which opens May 13. The exhibit will document the important roles women have played in rock and roll, highlighting, says the Hall, "the flashpoints, the firsts, the best, the celebrated—and sometimes lesser-known women—who moved rock and roll music and the American culture forward." For more information, visit rockhall.com.

The Washington Post, reviewing Jackson's recent performance at the 9:30 Club, said The Party Ain't Over offers "a fresh gateway to Jackson's music—a gutsy, greasy strain of seminal heartland rock-and-roll to which any White Stripes fan is probably susceptible."

    Guitarist/composer Yasmin Williams stopped by the NPR offices in Washington, DC, to perform a Tiny Desk Concert of songs from her new album, Acadia, and more. "Williams is a fingerstyle guitarist who taps, slaps and slides up and down the fretboard of her instrument with a commanding sense of scenery that flickers between the strings," says NPR's Lars Gotrich. "Storytellers build worlds; at the Tiny Desk, Williams invites us into hers." You can watch it here.
