At the start of his career, Jorge Drexler was living two lives – He was a doctor by day and a musician by night. Ten years after making the decision to leave medicine, he got his break, winning an Academy Award for his music from the 2004 film, The Motorcycle Diaries, and multiple Grammy nominations have followed. He stopped by in 2018 to share his story and perform live – We’ll hear that session today, as World Cafe’s celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month continues.

Back in 2015 when My Morning Jacket was making The Waterfall, the band recorded enough songs for a second album – And as lead singer Jim James explains today, he always thought those recordings would stay under wraps for a long, long time. Instead, The Waterfall II was released this Summer. We’ll find out why Jim changed his mind in an interview with host Raina Douris today. Plus, My Morning Jacket perform live. On the next World Cafe.
