Nov 19, 2015 Joanna Newsom By Christopher Roberts

Joanna Newsom will be appearing on a forthcoming episode of Larry King Now, the web show from the iconic former CNN broadcaster. The episode won’t debut until December 14, but King has shared an Instagram clip of Newsom patiently teaching him how to play the harp, her signature instrument. “Do it fast,” she advises. Watch the clip below.

Newsom recently released Divers, her long-awaited new album (her first in five years, since 2010’s Have One on Me), via Drag City. Below the video are her upcoming tour dates. Also read our review of Divers here.

Made history today: played a harp for the first time in all of my (almost) 82 years! Thanks for the lesson, #JoannaNewsom. Airing 12/14 #hardwork #artsy #lovemyjob #lyrics #hustle
