Episode 12 of the SoundDiego Podcast welcomes Sara Watkins, who got her start right here in North County San Diego as co-founder/fiddler of the Grammy-winning bluegrass group Nickel Creek. She's since embarked on an acclaimed solo career, is one-third of the folk supergroup I'm With Her — and also plays in the Watkins Family Hour with her brother, Sean (who is also in Nickel Creek, as is Chris Thile, now the host of NPR's "Live From Here"). They've got a brand-new album out fittingly titled "Brother Sister" and, unsurprisingly, it's been receiving rave reviews. Head over to their website, WatkinsFamilyHour.com, to buy a download and check out the group's various goings-on.Listen/subscribe to the SoundDiego Podcast on your favorite podcasting platform: Apple Podcasts | Google Play | Spotify | StitcherEpisode 12 Show Notes:Want a taste of the new Watkins Family Hour album?
