Description

What’s up party people! Have you listened to our new song, “Albatross” from Nashville hero Rayland Baxter yet?





Inspired by a confession taken at Newport Folk Festival all the way back in 2019, “Albatross” is an extremely intimate and reflective look into a young woman’s tragic experience and how she’s managed to keep a positive outlook despite all odds. Here’s a little spoiler…it directly involves Rayland himself! This is probably one of our most powerful episodes yet.





Don’t miss our interview with Rayland out this Sunday on our Substack!





Thank you to the City of Austin for bringing us to Newport Folk, probably the best festival in the country!
