Durham Artist Rich James has like staying pretty anonymous while playing under the moniker of WowolfoL, but he's stepping out and into the light.

Music by the Durham-based Wowolfol band is difficult to describe.

Perhaps the best phrase is “experimental folk.” Wowolfol is led by guitarist Richard James and features up to seven other musicians - mostly guitars - moving in and out of the lineup. The group played to packed audiences at Raleigh's Hopscotch Music Festival.

Host Frank Stasio talks with James and he performs live.
