142: Shelby Lee Lowe
Episode description
On Episode 142, I'm joined by country singer-songwriter Shelby Lee Lowe. About a month back, Lowe released Something in Me, a strong three-song EP that embraces Lowe's country croon, warbling pedal steel, and the gentle lean of neo-traditional sonic sways. Lowe's brand of heartache storytelling falls right in line as well. Much of 2020 has seen the Tennessee songwriter continually lean in and explore those down-home roots.
During this interview, we talk about those Tennessee roots, the pressures--both good and bad--of Nashville, writing with friends and contemporaries, taking advantage of short-burst recording sessions, Zoom writing, being out on the road and abruptly ending a tour in March due to COVID-19, and why he's so glad Derrick Henry is on the Tennessee Titans.
