About Your Week

Your Week is a new interactive weekly public television and internet TV show from WETA and The Corporation for Public Broadcasting. It's hosted by Michelle Cottle of The New Republic and Rich Lowry of National Review and powered by Reddit. This cross-platform irreverent show will bring a mix of entertaining stories, unconventional interviews and thoughtful comments from brilliant people across the planet. Your Week covers politics, arts, international, science, tech, social, sports, and pop culture. The Web feeds the show, the show feeds the Web, and anyone who wishes can get involved at any time to view, vote, rate, tag, comment, contribute, and learn. With your help, Your Week can be the antidote to the repetitive and polarizing media coverage that too often defines our national debate.

The theme song for Your Week was created by Anne McCue. Anne was recently honored by being included in Time Life's "FOUR DECADES OF FOLK ROCK" which features legendary artists from Bob Dylan to the The Byrds to Suzanne Vega. Originally from Australia, Anne is now based in Nashville, TN. She has released three studio albums and is currently at work on her fourth. She has performed with Lucinda Williams, who says of her, "Anne is my new favorite artist and an amazing guitarist."

"She possesses a poignantly plaintive voice and multi-ranged guitar chops that swing from tasty delta blues to stinging slide chordings to fat fedback riffs." LA WEEKLY

"Australian singer/songwriter/guitarist Anne McCue wields potent bluesy rock against her unaffected, naturally wistful voice." ROLLING STONE
