Mansion Sessions with Elizabeth Cook

Our Mansion Sessions series wraps the same way our June Roots on the Rivers did, with the smart, sometimes snarky songwriting of Elizabeth Cook, one of the architects of Nashville's alternative country scene in the 2000s. Her most recent album Aftermath is her most daring and surprising yet.

Watch a stripped-down performance of "Razor Wire Wall" and "These Days" from inside the historic Two Rivers Mansion for our intimate backstage video series.

That's a wrap on this year's Mansion Sessions. You can watch all 11 episodes here or on our NPR Live Sessions page.

  • Many of you have joined us for Roots On The Rivers, our boutique summer festival at the historic Two Rivers Mansion. For three years running, we’ve welcomed slates of exceptional artists from across the Americana spectrum to play nice, long sets on a great-sounding stage. The setting - the grounds of a 150-year-old antebellum home built by one of Nashville’s founding fathers - is relaxed, shady and ideal for our community to gather, converse, listen, and meet the artists. But what you don’t know, dear radio friends, is that behind the scenes at this year’s ROTR, on June 1, while the likes of Elizabeth Cook, Devon Gilfillian and Chatham County Line rocked the main stage, our crack audio/video crew produced a parallel, private concert.
