As always, free refreshments courtesy of Saint Arnold Brewing Company.

𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗥𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲‼️

“For a debut album, ‘𝘋𝘢𝘳𝘬 𝘰𝘯 𝘢 𝘚𝘶𝘯𝘯𝘺 𝘋𝘢𝘺’ arrives with remarkable assurance. Maisy Owen writes and performs with the confidence of an artist who has spent years quietly refining her craft, absorbing influences without becoming beholden to them. The result is a record that embraces folk traditions while refusing to be confined by them, balancing intimacy and expansiveness through songs that are emotionally direct yet rich with ambiguity.” -The Big Takeover Mag

“Her high, clear, quite lovely, sometimes haunting voice is gently backed by harmonies, a lonely guitar, and a brush of drums. A timeless sound, easy to sink into.” - MOJO

“There’s more to her than crystalline acoustic picking; her darkly poetic songs stand out from the throng. The sparse, melancholic purity of “On My Way Down” and “Letters” and the surging folk-rock of the title track are a testament to her versatility.” – UNCUT

With 𝘓𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘕𝘦𝘰𝘯 𝘚𝘶𝘯, Franklin clinches a personal win and delivers a 12-song joyride that honors Americana roots while embracing experimentation, individuality, and vulnerability. Co-produced by Franklin with sly alt-country hero Margo Price, the album marks Franklin’s first full-length solo record. It offers a snapshot of a brilliant artist who’s learned to lean into her perspective rather than contorting it to fit what anyone else has in mind. Franklin serves as her own muse, wielding a stubborn conscience that blurs the lines between art and advocacy. “This is my baby––my vision, my colors, truly my sound,” Franklin says. “I decided, okay, let me show people what I can do.”

Dolly Parton, the country singer, songwriter, entertainer and entrepreneur whose rags-to-riches story, outsize persona and prodigious vision and talent placed her in a class by herself, died on Tuesday in Nashville. She was 80.

The death was announced in a video posted on social media by her nephew, Bryan Seaver. No cause was provided. Concerns about Ms. Parton’s health, which began last year as she postponed and later canceled a Las Vegas residency, grew to the point that she took to social media last fall to confirm that “I ain’t dead yet.”

In May, she said she had responded well to treatment after, as she put it, her immune and digestive systems “got all out of whack” in recent years.

The writer Chet Flippo likened her to the Big Rock Candy Mountain, the Depression-era symbol of abundance personified by Ms. Parton’s voluptuous figure, rhinestone-studded stage costumes and blonde bouffant wigs. Her songs spoke to millions, confronting privation and loss even as they radiated possibility and hope.

Ms. Parton was one of country music’s greatest ambassadors, but she also collaborated widely with artists outside traditional Nashville circles, including Mavis Staples, Queen Latifah, Julio Iglesias and Ladysmith Black Mambazo. “Islands in the Stream,” a triple platinum-selling duet Ms. Parton recorded with Kenny Rogers, topped both the country and pop charts in 1983. (The song was written by Barry, Maurice and Robin Gibb of the Bee Gees.)
