Master Collaborator Phil Cook Takes Stage At Artsplosure

MIDDLE WEST MANAGEMENT
Phil Cook

Phil Cook has become a fixture in the Triangle music scene since moving to North Carolina from Wisconsin more than a decade ago. His love for collaboration means he has lent his writing, production, and multi-instrumental skills to countless projects.

Host Frank Stasio catches up with Cook about his politically-minded collaboration with writer and musician Shirlette Ammons and about headlining the local lineup at Raleigh’s Artsplosure Festival. Cook performs tonight at 7:30 p.m. at Artsplosure’s main stage in downtown Raleigh. 

Laura Pellicer is a digital reporter with WUNC’s small but intrepid digital news team.
Longtime NPR correspondent Frank Stasio was named permanent host of The State of Things in June 2006. A native of Buffalo, Frank has been in radio since the age of 19. He began his public radio career at WOI in Ames, Iowa, where he was a magazine show anchor and the station's News Director.
