New Album From Margo Price Coming In May

Along with collaborating with husband Jeremy Ivey on most of the songwriting, Price recorded with a stellar band assembled by Sturgill, including guitarist Matt Sweeney (Adele, Iggy Pop), bassist Pino Palladino (D’Angelo, John Mayer), drummer James Gadson (Aretha Franklin, Marvin Gaye), and keyboardist Benmont Tench (Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers). Backing vocals were added by Simpson on “Letting Me Down,” and the Nashville Friends Gospel Choir, who raise the arrangements of “Hey Child” and “What Happened To Our Love?” to soaring heights.

Price shared a video for her new single “Twinkle Twinkle,” directed by Matthew Siskin that was inspired by a candid, backstage conversation with Marty Stuart about the tough truths of touring and the illusory nature of success. She’ll perform songs from the new project at dozens of shows with Chris Stapleton and The Head & The Heart this Spring and Summer, in addition to festival appearances and more shows to be announced soon.

The album follows Price’s 2017 project All American Made, which landed on several best-of lists, and led to Price’s first Grammy nomination for Best New Artist, as well as three sold-out headlining shows at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium. Margo also released the 2016 album Midwest Farmer’s Daughter, which earned her a spot on Saturday Night Live, and followed with the EP Weakness in July 2017.
