Hey everybody, it's Kate Snow. I'm so excited for our latest episode of The Drink. It's my series all about how folks got to the top of their field. I had the chance to sit down with country singer Margo Price, who just released her brand new album. It's called Hard Headed Woman. We met at the Pig and Whistle in Manhattan where she ordered her go-to drink, soda water, lime, and bitters.

Margot's story is remarkable. It's full of setbacks and resilience. We talked about her

roots in a small Illinois farm town, her family losing the farm, the odd jobs that she worked

in Nashville to stay afloat, and how music helped her through a profound personal tragedy. As always, you can watch

all of our episodes online too at NBCNews.com slash the drink.

Yeah. So what we got? We got to do more? I don't know. Yeah, I mean. Oh, yeah, you're down so now. Cheers.

Salug. Margot Price, singer-songwriter, country music. We're at Pig and Whistle in Manhattan.

What's your drink? This is soda, lime, bitters, and a rocks glass.

Love it. Thank you.

Refreshing.

Mm-hmm.

It's really refreshing.

I know. I don't like things that are very sweet.

Yeah.

I like things that are more bitter.

Does that say something about you

right there? I think it does. I think it does. You're not bitter on your, in your songwriting,

but you definitely, you're real. You're real. You're not overly sweet. Bitter sweet. I've got to talk

about the dark side sometimes. Yeah, for sure. I want to talk about how this all happened for you.

I know it's a long story, but you grew up in Illinois. Yeah. In a farm town, basically.

Yeah. Your parents had a farm until you were what, like three? It was like two, almost three years
