If It's Too Loud...

Last year, Margo Price had my #3 album of the year with Midwest Farmer's Daughter. Somehow she released a fantastic new EP and my #1 album of the year, All American Made.  Price just expertly nails a retro 70's style country with absolute perfection. It's a sound I didn't know I wanted more of until she came around, and I haven't been able to get enough of her music in the past two years. As great as Midwest Farmer's Daughter was, she grew on that sound. Margo Price will be a household name in the next few years, and she'll be one of the few that truly deserves it. Songs of note: "Weakness," "Learning to Lose," and "Loner."

(I had it at #3 , while Jeff had it at #6 , fully proving my better taste...) Back in July, she released a surprise EP, so you'd think we wouldn't be getting anything new from Margo Price until 2018 at the earliest. Well, looks like she has a brand new album coming out in October, and we can already hear a new song from it. "A Little Pain" keeps Price's wonderful old school 70's sequined country sound, but it brings in a bit more of a soul feel to it. It's a bit of a throwback to her old band, Buffalo Clover. It seems like this might be the year of country/soul hybrids, and there won't be any complaints from us. You can listen to "A Little Pain" below. Margo Price's new album, All American Made, will be out October 20 on Third Man Records. ...
