A decade after her national breakout as a top alt-country visionary, more than two decades after her move to Nashville and her long, grueling apprenticeship in Music City, Margo Price is one of Americana music’s leading stars and cultural voices. She’s sung protest songs at Newport with Joan Baez and joined the board of Farm Aid, where she’s a veteran performer. Now she’s released the first political album of her career. Craig sits down with Margo to talk about her life in Nashville and her new Days Of Unrest.
