Summary
Margo Price’s rise in country music is anything but conventional and that’s exactly what makes her story unforgettable. In this episode, Margo opens up about her early days growing up in a small town, chasing music through the dive bars of Nashville, and weathering loss, rejection, and self-doubt along the way. She shares how she found her voice as an artist, the moment she knew music was her calling, and the struggles throughout the early years of her career. From writing her memoir to performing on SNL to her experiences with psychedelics and activism through Farm Aid, Margo doesn’t hold back. If you’ve ever questioned your path, felt the odds stacked against you, or tried to make something beautiful out of pain — this episode is for you.
