World Cafe Words and Music from WXPN features Americana duo Cotton Jones, who discuss their debut album, "Paranoid Cocoon." After singer-songwriter Michael Nau's much-adored indie outfit Page France decided to take a break, he developed a solo project called Cotton Jones Basket Ride. With the moniker truncated to Cotton Jones, and the line-up expanded to a duo, Nau and childhood friend Whitney McGraw set out to incorporate their love of folk and '60s psych-pop. In this interview, Nau explains how the album is a product of the pair's surroundings, and is a musical progression that is distinct from his work with Page France.
