Maggie Rose Goes Big In Many Ways On ‘No One Gets Out Alive’
Maggie Rose returns to the String for a full hour this time, because her new album No One Gets Out Alive marks yet another leap for this magnificent singer and songwriter from Nashville. As we heard back in Episode 180, the Maryland native was scouted by major labels while still in college, leading to a country deal in the early 2010s. She fell through the cracks in that restrictive format but regrouped as a fully indie artist working as a business team with her husband. She’s built a following by working the road and a series of albums that split the difference between soul, country, pop, and rock and roll. And as the host of her own podcast, she’s also a great conversationalist.

Stephanie Lambring’s New Album Takes On Hypocrisy, Even Her Own
Stephanie Lambring’s new album - her second - is called Hypocrite, and it blew me away on first listen because of the way its sophisticated production supports some mind-jarring and elegantly sculpted lyrics. She’s a rural Indiana native whose writing talents in her early Nashville days led to a major publishing deal at 23. The Music Row machine didn’t work for her ultimately, and after a hiatus she leaned into telling her own story, leading to an acclaimed debut in 2020. Now on her latest, she deftly investigates women navigating a 21st century digital panopticon of social pressure, conformity, autonomy and fulfillment.
