Californian songwriter Jessica Pratt has been touted by The New York Times culture magazine 'T', as "The Folk Artist To Watch In 2015". With a timeless voice, and finger picking acoustic guitar, she's had comparisons to Karen Dalton, Nick Drake, and contemporary artists like Joanna Newsom.

Pratt's second album On Your Own Love Again comes out at the end of the month - she joins Music 101's Kirsten Johnstone in the Radio New Zealand studio during a brief visit to Auckland to play some of the new songs.
