The Los Angeles band Chicano Batman set out to evolve with their latest collection of songs called Invisible People. The sound of the record is big, filled with hooks, and showcases multiple influences. And to get that sound, they enlisted the help of engineer Sean Everett – and maybe got a little inspiration from hanging out with him and Brittany Howard while she was finishing her solo album. We’ll hear about that connection today, plus live recordings of some of the new tracks. Coming up, on the next World Cafe with host Stephen Kallao.

World Cafe airs weekdays at 2:00 pm on KRCB-FM Radio 91 / streaming @ norcalpublicmedia.org / Listen live on-the-go with the FREE KRCB Mobile App! Download it today for your favorite mobile device.
