Sibling revelers Sara and Sean Watkins have been co-hosting the monthly Watkins Family Hour since 2002, and even though the shows are located in the heart of Hollywood, the pair always manage to make Largo feel like an intimately rustic living room. The duo have attracted onstage collaborations with such celebrity pals as Fiona Apple, Booker T, Dawes and John C. Reilly, and ace sidemen Benmont Tench (Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers), Greg Leisz (Matthew Sweet, kd lang) and Sebastian Steinberg (Soul Coughing) are often on hand to embellish the folkie tunes and bluegrass lamentations with rich layers of empathetic accompaniment. Even with all the stellar guest visitations, the allure of the Watkins Family Hour begins with the hosts, who have an easygoing, joking charm that belies their heartfelt and moody original tunes.
