I am 70 years old. Grew up listening to the great folk artist. She is truly an Amazing American artist. A real songwriter with something to say. You will not hear her songs on commercial country radio that play what has become the typical Nashville pop music. We all can enjoy her music on RU-vid.
I'm not a country guy at all, but I saw Margo and her band perform last summer in Toronto and I was completely blown away. So much talent. So unbelievably good live. I became an instant fan.
I Saul Margo about 10 years ago when she was doing the small circuit with pokey Lafarge in Des Moines, Iowa. I’m really glad she’s making the big time. I enjoy her music very much.
I'm 72 and you are the first country music artist I have ever liked. You would have been the first one who would have been accepted in our university coffee houses. Viva Margo, Jeremy, and the band!!
I keep coming back to this... Gotta love Margo Price. Headed down to see her tonight at Red Rocks. (She's opening for Wilco, but I'll be there for her.)
If her and Jak Wayne Bollé play a show together we might get to have a true outlaw country revival. That is if he can finally get his record done so he can maybe get a record contact and get outta the shadows of obscurity.
There isn't much justice left, and corporate radio only wants recording artists, luckily margo has the backing of jack white and third man records, so we'll have plenty more of her music in the coming years
She is GREAT! Not many artists win me over so quickly! I'm a picky musician who knows what he likes, and Margo is the "Real Deal"! She's a Rocker, She's a Folkie, She's a Country Girl...True "Americana "!❤
I heard "I put a hurtin' on the bottle" the other week on our local NPR station and was absolutely certain I wouldn't be able to find it anywhere outside of vinyl at a garage sale just based on the sound. I looked Margo Price up anyway tonight, just because it's been stuck in my head for that long. I found this, I went out and hit up amazon immediately. The Current plays plenty of old school music I've never heard of, but finding out that I can actually buy this digitally pleased the shit out of me. I'm now the proud owner of a lot of truly fantastic music. I was never a huge country fan growing up, unless you counted the stuff from 10-20 years before I was born, but whether you like twang or not, the music itself stands. Also, massive shout-out to Margo for being as passionate as she is. There's something about a musician who breaks down a bit during sad songs making the music that much better that I liken to Red Skelton's jokes being funnier because he laughed while telling them.
A great honest country song writer. Hope that Jak Wayne Bollé can get to play a show with her soon. Then we will see an outlaw country rival that this world so desperately needs.
She is a true talent, who sings of the problems plaguing America today. I can see how she identify's with Bob Dylan, who was the voice of a past generation. All the best to you Margo in the future.
If anyone in here doesn't know, Dillon Napier on drums used to be in a band called Scatter The Ashes. The have one album out called "Devout: The Modern Hymn". The man is a master on the drums. Check it out but be warned, they were a hardcore punk band. Sad they broke up
Washington Post article Feb 9th 2019 reports she's planning on getting out of Country Music because she can't get her music played on country stations. She said she was tired of country, it had been good to get her start, but she wants to get more political and can't do it in country. Meaning...she can't make it big in country so she's moving on...there's a country song in that...haha.
@@NotUrBiz Real country is no longer played on country radio. Meaning....she'll keep on doing what she is doing, and the dumb shitheads that listen to bro country were never going to matter anyway. And there's a country song in that, called "Murder on Music Row"....haha.
The NPR office is in D.C. This was recorded the morning after the election, 11.28.16. An artist based in TN wakes up in the capitol after this election with a hot mic and she gets bashed for dedicating a completely appropo song to the newly elected president. Insert eye roll here.
The band looks a bit hung over. I guess they hadn't been celebrating the election. Great performance and the kinda nerve that is rarely found on the radio these days.
Nice performance! By the way, I must admit that I've been watching way too many Sturgill Simpson videos lately otherwise I would have never even noticed this. But isn't the bassist here the same guy who played bass in Sturgill's old band, Sunday Valley?
