The OK Factor capture the holiday spirit in the studio

The holiday season has begun in earnest on Radio Heartland this week. We had the pleasure of hosting local string duo, The OK Factor, in the studio to play some tunes from their new album, Have Yourself an OK Christmas.
Olivia and Karla (hence, the "O" and "K") met as students at Luther College as classically trained players who wanted something more. So they started making duo arrangements for violin and cello. Their music makes for a wonderfully happy medium between folk and classical string playing.
Happy Holidays from Radio Heartland!
