The quirky mix of Lolo and Pops

This is an interview with musicians Paul Henry and Laura Shaffer of the duo Lolo & Pops. They have been singing their quirky mix of originals and covers in Sonoma County since 2007.

Both are native Californians, although Pops lived on the East Coast for some time, going to music schools, among other things. They first got together romantically in the late 90s, then musically when they started singing together to put their kids to sleep. This resulted in their first project, "Bound For Dreamland," a CD of lullabies based on music from the Sacred Harp. The kids are grown up, so they finally have the time to share some of the songs they've written over the years.

Lolo & Pops with The Rains will appear at The Lost Church in Santa Rosa on Saturday, June 28. Tickets here.
