Maybe it's the quiver in her voice or the poetry in her spare writing, but there's a magnetic pull that draws fans into the songs and stories of Amanda Shires. Watch the singer and fiddler bring her charming music to the NPR Music offices.

Set List:
"Swimmer..."
"Shake The Walls"
"When You Need A Train It Doesn't Come"
