00:01:11.100
been mutuals for a while yeah for a minute so i know that you think i'm funny yeah which i do brag
00:01:16.620
about and has been on my resume funny hope that's cool with you i'm on there okay cool i'm just funny
00:01:21.980
and like philosophical and like even in my like worst like hours of like the last year i was like
00:01:28.180
i just like dive into your rants and they're just yeah i'm just like fuck yes someone said it and
00:01:35.000
it's always you thank you i appreciate that maryn and i uh am a huge fan of you i think you're
00:01:40.980
so unbelievably talented and past your talent i really admire you for how convicted you are in
00:01:47.400
your beliefs uh obviously because the specific niche of music that you make can be quite
00:01:53.240
exclusionary sometimes but you've always been very upfront about being inclusive as a artist which i
00:01:59.560
love and admire about you and i want to tell you before i forget thank you because i make so many
00:02:03.720
wiener jokes that the serious shit just flies right out of my brain i forget i get it so i have to tell
00:02:09.060
you early we can we can do both we can do both but that means a lot um i think it's just it's
00:02:15.800
becoming a little bit more uh it's not as niche to like have those opinions and yeah we can talk to
00:02:22.120
each other on a more open connected level now so thankfully i feel like that ages me a bit because
00:02:27.860
like my first record was literally only in 2016 but there was no tiktok there wasn't even like apple
00:02:33.940
music yet it was just spotify and itunes and then you could like go buy the cd at target or walmart but
00:02:40.100
now it's like everything is so different and yeah it's just there's more channels of being able to
00:02:46.100
like tell someone the full context of who you are totally not just through the channels of like the
00:02:51.340
song or yeah like a polished interview now it's just way more about authenticity and totally not
00:02:58.680
overthinking everything absolutely and i do want to talk to you about that because i well first let's
00:03:02.860
get into your lore because it's extensive but i do i'm familiar with it but for those that are living
00:03:08.320
under a rock and maybe haven't heard of you before or know or familiar with your journey
00:03:11.960
um can you talk about how you got into music like when it really like kind of took off for you
00:03:16.120
kind of yeah of course yeah i'm from texas originally and outside of dallas and arlington texas i've been
00:03:24.260
performing and playing in bars and honky tonks and kind of like cutting my teeth live music wise that
00:03:30.660
way for you know since i was 11 12 years old which shocks a lot of people yeah that i was playing in
00:03:36.720
bars at that age but um i learned how to sign a bar tab um how to play for three hours for drunk
00:03:43.280
people um yeah audience i mean there's a part of me that like would never do it again but then also
00:03:50.620
it pisses me off that like these tiktok artists that are like 17 will never have to go through that
00:03:57.200
because i was like that really built some like hair skin and gumption and like you just are gonna
00:04:03.020
fucking get through it and yeah and learning to just be background noise because you're not the
00:04:08.420
center of attention yeah it's you're usually doing covers like it's you're not the star yeah but um
00:04:13.800
you're also like as a songwriter witnessing a lot of mania um sexual detention uh affairs
00:04:23.620
drunk people in bathrooms like at a young age so as a you know i can only imagine as a songwriter
00:04:29.880
that started in country music that that was perfect uh fodder for that but yeah i've lived
00:04:36.340
in nashville though for almost 12 years okay moved there when i was 22 to like just write for other
00:04:43.120
people yeah and uh i didn't really want a record deal or to be an artist anymore i was like i had
00:04:48.920
grown up doing that and so after that experience you were kind of like yeah i was just burned out
00:04:54.040
like i had burnout at like a very young age and then uh nashville kind of like put the gas in my
00:04:59.600
tank again to like be creative and that's good and like collaborate because i think i was so like
00:05:05.040
texas is so big that the music scenes there are like dallas is so far away from houston which is so far
00:05:11.220
away from austin and san antonio and they all have their own niche music scenes so nashville is like
00:05:17.720
the melting pot of yeah everyone there is a transplant kind of like la where it's just everyone's from
00:05:23.280
somewhere else you're all there for a reason yeah and mostly creative music reasons and not
00:05:29.080
everyone's there for like country music like you know there's all types of genres going on there but
00:05:34.600
uh i would say the main you know export is like the mainstream country music world but i had like
00:05:40.560
some mild success as a songwriter there like my first song that was recorded by another artist was
00:05:46.220
tim mcgraw and like you know og like that was a massive um kick in the door for me just
00:05:52.820
credibility wise on music rel which is where all the like uh publishing houses are yeah and then
00:05:58.800
like kelly clarkson recorded a song of mine and that kind of opens up the like pop world for me
00:06:04.040
so yeah and then i wrote this song out here actually in la um i was going through a breakup and i wrote
00:06:10.780
this song called my church and i just like had this kind of nausea of like i will be sick if someone
00:06:17.820
records this that isn't me love and i don't know i just marked my territory on it and i found my
00:06:25.800
manager janet and we put this out on spotify with no label just did it ourselves and within like
00:06:31.620
two or three days it had like a million streams which was unheard of at the time and like all the
00:06:37.620
labels in nashville are now like who the hell is this chick like and um kind of like two labels
00:06:44.160
ended up getting into like a bidding war over me and i was able to like leverage that into like a
00:06:48.600
pretty great recording deal and then i don't know like that was the first song i ever put out and so
00:06:53.680
the rest was history as they say yeah that's what uh that's kind of what megan trainer said too like
00:06:59.180
she was like i was writing for other people for a long time and then i wrote one that i was like i
00:07:03.300
need to do this one like this one's for me yeah i think actually she and i were at the same
00:07:07.220
publishing house um it was like a sort of smaller one uh called big big yellow dog and she i guess
00:07:14.280
wrote all about that base yeah and then was like i am the only one that can record this yeah so yeah
00:07:20.240
love her yeah and you have a very similar story i love that so after the initial like launch like
00:07:26.220
how was it like going kind of from being behind the scenes to now being completely front-facing and
00:07:31.280
like the future of country music like at the time at the time yeah i i mean it was daunting i think
00:07:36.540
i had been well prepared for it though just having had that background of performance well that's
00:07:40.880
good and i was also 26 when my record came out so i was already like established in the way of like
00:07:47.940
my frontal lobe was developed that's t i say that all the time every time i talk about it i'm like
00:07:53.040
because i just turned 29 not too long ago and i every time i say that people are like damn because
00:07:58.440
everyone on tiktok is 11 so every time people who are my peers and make the same amount of money
00:08:03.020
they're like 17 and so yeah whenever i talk about it i'm like i was a an adult when i got this i was
00:08:08.600
in my mid-20s when i started doing this shit so fiji airways is on sale now fly from toronto via

00:08:40.640
sometimes when people are like how do you think so confidently about that well first of all i'm not
00:08:44.180
a child age i think sometimes they just think i'm like 22 which yeah i don't ever want to go back
00:08:49.960
to that age no it was a nightmare i'm cool with getting older yeah i like i mean obviously there
00:08:54.140
are people that can are well equipped to handle it young like i mean not very many of them though
00:08:59.680
i was gonna say taylor swift maybe yeah it's the only one that's like started at 14 15 became
00:09:06.180
massively famous and never stopped being that big yeah just got bigger yeah and didn't like lose their
00:09:11.740
mind or at least not in a way that we've seen yeah yeah truly so and it's hard not to you've done it
00:09:17.020
long enough now i've barely been doing it for however long and i i'm not even kidding like two years
00:09:21.780
into doing this i was like i get why people go insane yeah i get it i have women especially like
00:09:26.840
i totally get it yeah there's like an annual um and i i prepare for it now it's just annual like
00:09:32.760
mini breakdown oh my god me just allow yourself the space to have one one huge one clear out the
00:09:38.020
cobwebs yep yep yep yep and then you're okay yeah i talk about it like expelling my venom like a snake
00:09:43.360
like i'll die if i don't do it no you gotta get it out someone's gotta really squeeze my goiter and
00:09:47.840
spit it out otherwise i'm gonna burn a city down you know what i'm saying i'm like i'll literally
00:09:52.560
burn down a hospital it's in everyone's best interest i do it yeah sorry or i'll like burn
00:09:57.160
myself down yeah and then like yeah no like no one can get anything from me so yeah i was like this
00:10:03.620
is i'm useless in that sense yeah it can't work yeah yeah so as long as you make space for like
00:10:08.560
the annual breakdown i think it's okay um and we should talk about it my son's aries okay i love that
00:10:14.640
i'm a leo rising which totally makes sense yeah uh libra moon um so i never really identified with
00:10:22.360
like aries until my 20s where i was like oh shit i actually am extremely opinionated and stubborn
00:10:30.000
and um like short fused i love aries people what are you i'm a virgo okay so i'm like i'm i'm real
00:10:37.700
opposite in a lot of ways aries people i always kind of summarize them as like if you're you know when
00:10:43.360
you're driving a car and you're kind of like what if i just like off the road killed everyone or
00:10:49.180
whatever happens happens aries people are that thought but if they did it i hate that you're
00:10:55.120
saying this they're like i'm sure it'll be fine and most times it works out and it's fine but that
00:11:00.420
kind of uncertainty stresses me out as a virgo like i need plans and a structure and yeah i told my
00:11:06.500
therapist that once where i was like i used to fantasize like in my teen years just about driving
00:11:11.180
off the highway and she's like um okay we need to get into this then see me being a virgo i'm always
00:11:17.320
right yeah you you just clocked me i feel like you clocked my soul slid out of my ass that's why i
00:11:23.780
say aries people give into that feeling and i think that's why i get along with aries really well because
00:11:28.600
i could never in a million years but like i like one of my best friends in college was in aries and so
00:11:34.080
i always describe her as like i never would have had fun or done like any of the cool shit i did
00:11:39.620
and if she wasn't in my life yeah and she would have died if i wasn't in hers so it works right
00:11:44.220
respect the toxic yeah we get we get a good like balance of fun and staying alive yeah i love that
00:11:50.820
yeah yeah we need that really well with them we need those people but okay so well going back to
00:11:56.740
your illustrious career yeah um once you really start like establishing yourself as an artist and like
00:12:02.040
like a musician um when do you start noticing where you you want to be more vocal about your beliefs
00:12:08.440
and how you feel like as far as ideologies go especially considering you started in country
00:12:12.440
like how did you feel about that kind of um it happened pretty quick just because um at least
00:12:20.140
in country music i don't know if they still do it this way but you know before streaming was sort of
00:12:25.620
the main way we would consumed music radio is still like extremely powerful yeah yeah particularly in
00:12:31.560
country so we would do these things called radio tours where the label would send an artist out for
00:12:37.880
six weeks to six months and just go to like 150 stations around the country like you know we're
00:12:46.020
flying frontier we're flying southwest at like 5 a.m we're staying in like you know comfort ends or
00:12:53.800
worse um red roof ends yeah red roof plenty of those um i do like a hampton end okay i love a hampton
00:13:00.460
yeah those beds are comfortable but you just go and plan these conference rooms for program directors or
00:13:06.560
like their staff and you buy them lunch and um it's very bizarre and very old school and then you'll do
00:13:13.960
like maybe two or three stations in a day and then you'll go out for dinner with them and it's always
00:13:20.020
a steakhouse don't know why they always request a steakhouse and you're paying for it like it's going
00:13:25.680
back on your deal is that just to get them to like play the song on the radio is it like trying to
00:13:30.620
wine and dine them both i mean yeah it's both it's it's very transactional yeah i will say like the
00:13:36.900
the nice people i met in radio particularly always women and um you know had their own axe to grind
00:13:45.260
within that world because it is you know again very male dominated and so for me that was always like a
00:13:51.880
weird part of the job but it was also like i got to pay my dues i don't want to complain this is what
00:13:56.700
everyone else has to do including the men artists like so you know just like get get through it and
00:14:04.120
i remember like i was dealing with massive strep throat throughout that entire year i ended up
00:14:09.040
having to get like a tonsillectomy because i was sick all the time from the travel yeah yeah i bet and
00:14:14.660
um so it was gnarly but like obviously i ended up getting radio play and obviously i do think like
00:14:21.320
my songs had something to do with it too like duh but also there's just a lot of ring kissing and
00:14:27.500
but i think i noticed really quickly that i needed to be more vocal and like state my boundaries beyond
00:14:33.980
private and do it publicly was i was at like a post-show meet and greet um i was opening for
00:14:42.120
keith urban and it was like the best tour like he's so lovely the catering was fucking bomb like i
00:14:48.980
we talk about this catering like eight years later i'm still thinking that's how good it was um well
00:14:54.080
because not every tour has it oh i bet yeah i know but it was like such a cool learning experience he's
00:14:59.860
like so great with everyone he works with but there was like a radio guy from the local station that came
00:15:05.040
to my meet and greet after my set and was just super drunk probably on my labels dime or mine actually
00:15:12.720
because it will go back to my account that i have to recoup but just got drunk before the show
00:15:18.380
probably missed my entire set and then like wants to get photos after and he was just like really
00:15:23.460
handsy with me and this is one of luckily not that many times it happened to me i know plenty of friends
00:15:30.880
of mine it's happened to way worse so mine was like i guess one of the lucky ones but he was just
00:15:37.320
super drunk and gross and like hanging all over me and giving a lot of like spouty opinions about what
00:15:42.560
my next like single should be and how don't pick a ballad because people don't want to hear like
00:15:46.940
sad women on the radio and i was like have you heard country music bitch like the whole thing
00:15:52.500
is well we all know keith urban's all sunflowers and rainbows and nothing sad but like the best
00:15:59.140
country songs to me are like the hard-hitting like real life isn't that the whole point of country
00:16:03.620
yeah it really hits you in the feels i know right i mean loretta lynn literally has a song called the
00:16:08.480
pill right it's hello that's real life shit and so whatever his skew of what i should be doing or
00:16:15.540
what women should be like looking or sounding like within the confines of the radio of country
00:16:20.280
it was just and also just yeah him being really inappropriate i was like this is i got out safe
00:16:26.900
on this one yeah but like i know plenty of women friends of mine that haven't and male friends too
00:16:32.020
male artist friends that have dealt with that shit so um yeah that's kind of when my light bulb turned on
00:16:38.700
of like we've got to stop like normalizing this behavior and um there has to be a way to be able
00:16:45.800
to be successful in this without having to deal with that yeah like stomach it yeah so in order to
00:16:52.060
avoid being blackballed yeah which now i mean obviously like felt a little naive to even have
00:16:57.860
that optimism at the time but right yeah i mean there's a lot of like boundaries um inconveniently
00:17:04.800
that i've set up you know in the last decade yeah i'm glad i'm glad you have especially i feel like
00:17:10.640
too that's another testament to women being so violently aware of bullshit like that so much
00:17:17.020
a lot of times earlier than men do when they go through the same like uh journey or career path
00:17:22.880
it's kind of like the harvey weinstein shit like a lot of people knew already but women told each other
00:17:28.800
yeah they said hey don't ever be alone with him don't ever if he ever invites you the way that women
00:17:33.180
have to guard rail each other because men are doing fucking shit to protect us so we're like okay
00:17:37.800
then we'll have to protect each other i can't talk about him publicly because i'll never work again so
00:17:42.140
i'm just gonna warn people behind closed doors that shit's nuts i know and it's prevalent in every
00:17:46.720
part of entertainment yeah i'm not surprised at all that it exists in music oh my god the diddy stuff
00:17:52.340
like i know shit i mean we don't even know like the tip of even the tip of the iceberg of that yeah
00:17:57.680
like the the way that it spreads like a fucking poison is insane yeah but that's why i'm glad
00:18:02.980
that's why i admire you so much because i feel like you have been very vocal about many things
00:18:08.020
and it is brave to do that is it's very scary trust me i fucking know right to be like especially
00:18:13.960
when when you say one thing you become like almost like the spokesperson for that entire genre
00:18:19.140
right so they're now you're speaking for all of them but you're like i'm only speaking for me i can't
00:18:23.740
speak for anybody else yeah that's why i admire you so much for being so upfront about what you
00:18:27.560
believe in what you think is right it's hard for people to just especially women thanks you know
00:18:31.840
what i mean like and you're still here yeah i'm still doing fantastic yeah i mean it's it's thank
00:18:37.700
you i mean i i think what you were saying about you can't be because i did feel like i've even said
00:18:43.680
this in an interview before i was just like i can't be the fucking like hall monitor yeah all the
00:18:49.320
time yeah for like people's bad behavior truly and like i you know i got off twitter um after a few
00:18:55.980
too many like clapbacks um and it's like i never regret what i say but it's also like i have to take
00:19:03.680
care of myself it's exhausting yeah and like just those fears of you know i have a four-year-old little
00:19:08.840
boy and being doxxed or like just anyone ever being like dangerous like it's happened uh just feeling
00:19:15.960
unsafe like yeah i mean i bring him on the road with me and i don't show him or his face on social
00:19:20.660
media um but like yeah just those things that i can do to protect him but at the same time like
00:19:25.840
if anything that i ever say comes back or like riots up these crazies yeah yeah because there are some
00:19:32.720
yeah um and i've gotten into tiffs with like very public people um uh yeah telling me yeah you and me
00:19:40.780
both yeah yeah it's like you're sending up almost like the bat signal on yourself to be you know
00:19:46.040
abused and so death threats like this and that like that stuff is very real like everything seems like
00:19:53.040
it's only existing within the confines of uh a wi-fi connection but like it's you know when it gets real
00:20:00.440
and things are being sent to your house and shit like that it's like yeah you do have to kind of
00:20:05.740
figure out ways to maintain your morality and like do that publicly and keep that bravery but also
00:20:12.340
yeah there are certain things where it's like i don't need to shoot this off on twitter i girl i've
00:20:17.200
only learned the hard way telling me me too same honestly that's why i relate so heavily to what
00:20:21.820
you're talking about especially with yeah but like you only you do it like truly when someone's being
00:20:26.300
like crazy out of pocket like i i downloaded twitter back to watch the pearl stuff unfold with you
00:20:33.980
yeah because i was like you're just so well you're well spoken and you also have like an acid tongue
00:20:40.620
and like it's just so and you do it within the like however many characters they allow now period
00:20:45.820
yeah i know they they really they really fucked up giving me more than 140 on twitter yeah i deleted my
00:20:50.640
twitter too though transparently um just because like you said there has to be a balance at some point
00:20:56.060
like obviously for me like this this greatness was thrust upon me in the sense of like the mantle they gave
00:21:01.920
me was i did not ask for that nor did i think that was going to be the case i'm happy to do it even
00:21:07.660
sometimes like when i get i get criticism all the time but especially from people that are like well
00:21:12.320
i just think there's better ways to do it and sometimes i tell i tell them i'm like then fucking
00:21:17.720
do it right tag in bitch i'm lonely out here what the fuck i am fighting by myself i am doddling an army
00:21:23.520
alone i'm john snow where are the allies i know i'm the bastards i'm like where are the knights of the veil
00:21:29.420
yeah exactly i'm just alone i'm i'm being suffocated under hundreds of bodies like and
00:21:34.560
that's uh it is a mantle you carry like i totally get what you're saying as far as like you become
00:21:40.320
a patrol and then it's like that's all i ever do and then on top of that that's all i'm ever consuming
00:21:45.700
like i had to i had to kind of like start discerning what i did and didn't want to talk about because
00:21:51.880
there are certain things that are just too horrible to platform and i refuse to yeah and there are men that
00:21:57.020
i've fucked up before in a silly way and then i found out they like genuinely are evil to their
00:22:01.180
core and i refuse to talk about them anymore because i'm not giving i'm not breathing life
00:22:05.700
into that name on my platform anymore for sure people like if you really want people to disappear
00:22:10.140
you have to de-platform them you have to ignore them like and pretend they're dead so that's what i do
00:22:14.640
i've done that well with a woman but um yeah oh me too i did that with that woman that you just
00:22:19.380
yeah i did that with her too when i got engaged they were like i wonder what pearl thinks i don't give a
00:22:24.920
fuck what she thinks yeah i don't care what she thinks about literally anything at all ever but
00:22:28.780
especially me i don't care no and they're just like begging for the like engagement and it's you
00:22:34.440
kind of realize how powerful you are though because you're like when i stop engaging even if it's not
00:22:39.800
with a specific person but even a platform yeah it like it kicks up and you realize you like trade
00:22:45.060
it up too because it's like okay you traded the like stress of twitter or x for like a new york
00:22:51.180
time's best-selling book amen that's your channel now like do that i know that that twitter calls
00:22:56.420
to me like the green goblin mask you know what i'm saying like whispers and i'm like i know i know
00:23:01.700
but mostly honestly the only reason i felt like that about twitter was because on twitter i really
00:23:07.760
could be mean there yeah see like when i'm fighting on tiktok that's me fighting with two
00:23:11.360
hands behind my back if if they really let me these people would never show their face in public ever
00:23:15.780
again yeah we're going into the gutter right yeah but twitter is such a hellscape that i can say
00:23:20.940
whatever i want on there and that's not a good thing yeah yeah so that's actually really bad we
00:23:24.880
need to be regulated a little bit just a tiny bit i need a little bit of a leash i'll admit it
00:23:29.400
sure of course i do it's so true like i when i redownloaded it um for your discourse to watch my
00:23:37.320
fight i hadn't been on in like three years and so after elon took over it i was like this is
00:23:42.700
insanity on here it's nasty and it's gross and i had like a burner account and i was like i can't be on
00:23:48.800
here like what the hell am i watching it's just like porn clips and like ai crazy like i know it's
00:23:56.200
just insane it's gross over there i know really it's going down and it's going down fast i'm glad
00:24:00.260
you i'm glad you deleted yeah i got out while the building was burning you know yeah you know i went
00:24:04.820
out on top i'd say i that's when you have to know when to fold them yeah just yeah get out totally
00:24:10.400
right after you bested a bitch well that's why i think you're you're fantastic in that sense too
00:24:14.600
because it's one of those i feel like and i'm sure you agree with the sentiment too where there's
00:24:19.020
are certain there's certain levels where i'm like yeah debating with you is not going to give me
00:24:22.920
anything because you want to go viral and you can't do it without me and then on top of that like
00:24:28.500
you just are committed to misunderstanding me because every time i like the the three times a
00:24:34.080
year i'm like trying to be serious in the shit i'm saying like i'm not i'm not telling them mean
00:24:38.860
jokes about what they look like uh the three times i do it they're always like well then you should
00:24:43.300
invite me on your show and debate me why the fuck would i do that yeah who's that benefiting
00:24:48.080
yeah girl what do i get out of that other than psoriasis like my scalp itches yeah near me i don't
00:24:53.160
want you near me i know i'm gonna catch something yeah i think you i think you being like yeah i don't
00:24:58.260
need to engage with this anymore just there's power in that there's autonomy in that which i love
00:25:02.880
there is and i think like they only kind of gain notoriety notoriety sounded so southern just now
00:25:09.840
notoriety um they only gain that through yeah exactly like you said your engagement and you
00:25:16.140
just realize like how powerful your pen is or your your statements are and that like is scary as hell
00:25:23.520
because it's like i didn't realize what i was saying meant this much but i guess it does and it like
00:25:29.560
really starts to pick up traction with like tabloids or like just stupid press outlets and you're like oh my
00:25:35.540
god like that was just it was literally a tweet and it was a passing moment but now it's like i still
00:25:41.960
look back at everything and i'm like i stand by everything i said me but it's so me yeah i there's
00:25:47.760
no regret like the intention was absolutely correct yeah no i meant what i said i just like i don't need
00:25:53.160
to say it anymore or ever like speak to you again yeah so yeah just enjoy that life but um no it's
00:26:00.300
it it does get exhausting but there's such a like liberation from it too because it's like
00:26:04.700
i've had to walk away from a lot of toxic things in my life like even recently it's just um bubbling
00:26:11.740
up into um a lot of like identity things too with my like genre of music and like the things i love
00:26:19.460
about country music like the the lyrical realness the songwriting integrity my community in nashville too
00:26:26.940
which is still very much there like i write a lot out here in la but my my close friends the people
00:26:33.240
that i built something in a sound with are nashville based so and it's very like this is the thing too
00:26:39.460
not that i want any more people like coming to nashville because it's like getting so crazy but
00:26:44.360
it's such a melting pot that like everyone's just it is progressive and yeah i feel like it's it gets
00:26:52.660
this bad rap because it's kind of steeped in a lot of these conservative ideals and like
00:26:57.960
misogyny racism like that's all obviously very much still there and not just nashville like you
00:27:05.120
know everywhere but i i think uh there's still something about that place that like i have not
00:27:10.580
pulled the plug on and it like keeps me there because it's like i was talking to um it was like
00:27:17.700
at the glad awards last summer um i was getting an award and so was jonathan van ness and love jvm i
00:27:24.740
know they've been on the show too we love them i know they live in austin texas now and i was like
00:27:29.880
why like i love austin yeah i i mean i think that too when i see their posts i know and i'm i'm from
00:27:36.960
texas austin's like one of my favorite cities in the world but just knowing jonathan's lived in like
00:27:42.960
la new york i was like you chose to live in austin why and they were like well we we shot a season of
00:27:48.480
queer eye there i fell in love with the the city and they were like i just feel like i i i can affect
00:27:55.680
more change living in the state where these laws and are actively abusive than living in a a city where
00:28:05.600
it's extremely progressive everyone kind of like votes and thinks the same as you for the most part
00:28:10.540
which is like i totally get that too it's like you want to flock to a city of where you feel safety
00:28:15.940
yeah that's absolutely fair but i think that kind of what jvn said about that i was like i think that's
00:28:23.460
what keeps me in nashville too yeah totally is like i feel like there's a there's a community there that's
00:28:29.480
like building and building yeah and we need to have like allies there to keep it building absolutely if
00:28:35.980
we all like become expats and live in new york and london or la yeah you lose you lose really
00:28:43.340
beautiful places that were meant for something more than that yeah they've over time evolved into
00:28:48.580
something that feels very exclusionary and very bigoted yeah um which is not anyone's not our fault
00:28:54.960
who are existing currently right now right who actively want to change that don't want that to be
00:28:58.700
the case yeah but i think that's a powerful thing too like um wanting to wanting to show people
00:29:03.600
all the wonderful beautiful parts of nashville as opposed to what it's become known for sure which
00:29:09.120
is again i think that's a powerful thing too i think it's important like and i and i've talked
00:29:13.080
about that before when people ask me like oh like do you think there's any hope for change like do you
00:29:18.260
think that like men are gonna change and blah blah blah i'm like well none of the men i stitch are
00:29:22.160
gonna fucking change i can promise you that they're gonna die that way but that's besides the point
00:29:25.320
um i was like i don't think change will come from people who inherently hate minorities or
00:29:30.700
marginalized people just all of a sudden turning on a light i think what's gonna change is is we
00:29:35.980
build something new that's what changes and we leave them to die out like their bloodlines should
00:29:41.120
stop and we should leave them to die yeah and then we should focus on each other and we should focus on
00:29:46.260
building community within each other and we should grab all the people on the fringe people who are
00:29:49.960
at risk of tipping to that side those are people you can get you can't get people who've made up their
00:29:55.000
mind like i know so i feel like that's how you feel about nashville it's like well i'm gonna let
00:29:59.200
those people die out but i'm gonna carve out something new yeah that will focus on what i
00:30:04.160
what i love about nashville and what you love about country music because country music is beautiful
00:30:08.320
i don't know a lot about it but it is beautiful well it's it is and like there's so there's such
00:30:13.500
a huge like fan base that's younger now for it which like it's really happened in the last couple
00:30:17.780
of years but living in nashville i think like um like gen z gen alpha like you know i have a four-year-old
00:30:24.800
so it's like i think also the other thing about community is like the kids that are being raised
00:30:30.000
in that that bubble which is in the south or whatever like it's like people are getting i think
00:30:36.400
smarter and more um aware aware and like kinder yeah yes we have to like keep a grip on you know
00:30:45.420
just everything being social media based and like everything being instantaneous but i do think
00:30:50.200
uh what like the the good parts of that have been that we can talk to each other we can see someone's
00:30:56.420
point of view that lives you know thousands of miles away totally there's there's like a gift in that
00:31:01.600
there's obviously downsides too but i think that's it's made uh i mean my son's not on any sort of
00:31:08.360
platform but like he's he's so kind and empathetic and like that obviously comes from like my my ex and
00:31:14.640
myself but in like his community but that gives me hope because it's like totally okay absolutely
00:31:20.040
you're a little kid you know you're privileged like yeah like because of me yeah and like uh but
00:31:25.940
you are growing up in this this town person yeah and it just he's traveling a lot he tours with me and
00:31:32.240
there's just something about that that makes me feel like okay maybe it's gonna be okay let's talk
00:31:36.800
about hate you get a lot of hate i have i know you did when you were leading crusades i'm a fan i
00:31:43.600
remember yeah um a lot as far as an artist a lot of hate yeah i'm sure because it's like
00:31:49.340
the squeaky wheel yeah you know but i think also it it brought a lot of love in too because it's
00:31:56.380
just people that had no idea that maybe you would never listen to country music were like
00:32:00.140
wait a second i'm not even kidding i do remember when you were getting in public beefs on twitter
00:32:04.880
and shit like standing up for people i remember people saying like which i thought was funny and
00:32:10.040
which is what made me like you which was they would say i did not know that she was with the
00:32:14.640
shits like that i did not know that they were doing it like that over there in country music
00:32:18.520
yeah which i think is hilarious i think that's so wonderful thanks you're like opening people's
00:32:22.680
perspectives yeah there's a good good few of us doing that in nashville but like yeah it certainly
00:32:28.500
it definitely opened up a lot of channels of like crazies and you know the tucker carlson
00:32:34.560
thing yeah and like some other bitches i won't name but i yeah i was just like that's interesting
00:32:41.300
but also it's just it kind of levels out the playing field and you're like okay i've never
00:32:47.960
been called this and now i have and i survived i think i'm gonna be okay i think it's gonna be okay
00:32:54.340
yeah well i will let's transition quickly into your new music i would love for you to tell us about
00:32:59.380
the new music how it's going yeah and what people can expect and what they can be excited to hear from you
00:33:04.320
miss maren morris yes um so i put an ep out like two months ago or so called intermission
00:33:09.820
it's just like five songs i'm working on a full album but uh i have this song that i wrote actually
00:33:17.040
last year with my friends uh laura belts and jack antonoff and i jack antonoff obviously everyone
00:33:23.380
ever heard of him he's a small indie artist yeah yeah hope he makes it big one day he works with a
00:33:29.720
couple women you wouldn't know him uh yeah nobody makes it big yeah i'm praying for him me too
00:33:34.940
hard times yeah he's hanging on it's so hard being him but yeah he's the best and i i wanted to put
00:33:42.480
that out like a long time ago but i was like something about right now just feel it's called
00:33:47.020
people still show up and that is that's never been more true than this particular year for me because
00:33:52.680
i went through like a lot of shit on the personal end and professionally just a lot of changes and i
00:33:59.420
just realized like my world got smaller in terms of like i didn't need as many people in it to feel
00:34:05.580
whole yeah like kind of downsized but i was just like wow it's it's all quality people it's all quality
00:34:14.340
experiences conversations even if i don't remember all of them like we we showed up for each other they
00:34:21.080
showed up for me it's also like for my my fans like coming to shows like it's you know on a year
00:34:27.360
i didn't put an album out still coming to shows this summer i was like y'all have been supportive
00:34:32.180
as fuck so i was like this song is for you but yeah um and then i'm just finishing this record
00:34:37.560
and very exciting yeah what are you looking forward to as far as your career down the line like are there
00:34:44.080
any collaborations that you would like love to see or you maybe can tease yeah if you feel so inclined
00:34:50.620
it's up to you i mean like obviously i would love to make another record with um my band the high
00:34:56.500
women uh which is like me brandy carlisle uh natalie hemby and amanda shires uh if we ever like are in
00:35:03.500
the same city again we will make that happen but um i think for me i just want to like be able to tour
00:35:08.960
and um you know i've i've kind of changed labels in the last year and it just all feels reset for me
00:35:16.700
right now which is that's cool you're resetting the table though exactly i love that though but
00:35:21.240
it's cool it's like i nothing scares me anymore yeah i've kind of been through it all yeah and i i
00:35:28.240
like this sort of like fresh reset phase of like i'm working with a lot of random people that i love
00:35:34.360
and i'm fans of and it just makes me so happy i i wrote a song with moona that came out on my
00:35:40.900
here yeah we're a big lesbian filled house so we love moona here moona knows we love them yes um
00:35:48.520
always and forever incredible songwriters like obviously and then naomi is just a badass producer
00:35:55.740
yeah so um they're so crazy talented it's crazy i know and and also just like hilarious i feel like
00:36:02.400
annoying they're too talented knock it off moona talented yeah it's like we we will write the song
00:36:08.960
but then it's like almost like the song's not the priority that day it's like just about the hang
00:36:13.900
yeah yeah that doesn't surprise me you have to like remind each other like oh shit like we should
00:36:18.660
probably write something we just like yammer on right but yeah they're too funny i love that how
00:36:24.160
exciting oh my gosh all my fans who are gay which is all of them um they're all gonna freak out when
00:36:29.520
they hear that oh my gosh how exciting okay oh well i do want to ask you this like as far as
00:36:34.740
when it comes to like melding the worlds of like your personal beliefs and ideologies and your music
00:36:42.100
and then having very real fear like if like oh what if this you know alienates an audience what if this
00:36:48.820
makes people not like me or not want to buy my stuff or stream my art or whatever uh for people who
00:36:54.040
maybe are struggling with that kind of like mentality what would you say is your best piece of advice for
00:36:58.420
them especially if they're women and if they identify as anything marginalized they're already kind of
00:37:02.400
working against an uphill battle so i think that's another reason why a lot of people are like oh i
00:37:06.720
don't want to talk about politics i don't want to talk about like what i believe in because i don't
00:37:10.980
want you know sometimes labels or brands or agencies they make you kind of not show certain parts of
00:37:16.860
yourself so that you don't alienate anyone or a consumer so what would you say is your best piece of
00:37:21.480
advice for those ones i mean if you are anyone but like a white cis straight male like your existence
00:37:31.240
is inherently political and politicized so tell them there is no escape from that yeah i think
00:37:38.980
you know i'm like a privileged white woman but in the the strictures of country music there are like
00:37:47.100
obviously uphill battles being a woman like absolutely still are like yeah any radio play like
00:37:53.500
it was it's still extremely slanted like it's not in the favor of us so i just think at your own
00:37:59.760
peril or risk like you are gonna go against things that make your skin thicker and you will get an
00:38:06.020
armor over time but you don't know until you go and like i think for me i never set out to be like
00:38:12.580
this activist artist it was just and i still write songs that are just like relationship songs like
00:38:17.480
songs about like a one night stand like whatever but like of course i've i've gone there on songs
00:38:23.460
too where it's like i want this to this is meaningful to me and this goes beyond like
00:38:28.200
just the surface level worldly relationships like this is something that like i wrote a song years
00:38:34.540
ago called better than we found it um after george floyd's murder and it was really just a song i
00:38:42.180
wanted to dedicate to my son who was like like eight months old at the time and it was just a really
00:38:47.700
important song for me to put out and of course i could have sat on it it could have sat in my inbox
00:38:53.360
for years but like it really meant a lot to people and it meant a lot to me and like i ended up getting
00:39:00.020
like a grammy nomination and you just don't know until you like go for it and totally but i also i'll
00:39:06.040
never like judge people for being afraid because it's fucking scary it is to put yourself out there i agree
00:39:12.900
especially if you're like you were saying you were playing in bars for years and like you know
00:39:17.960
wanting to be an artist or or just be able to put your art out there a lot of times all my friends
00:39:22.040
who are musicians like they never planned on ever like being famous like they just wanted to make art
00:39:27.320
and it worked it worked out but then i i feel like too at the same time obviously i'm just a dickhead
00:39:31.560
online and my my thing is antagonizing me i go in a nice swing on people who are not looking at me all
00:39:37.540
the time um but i always feel like if this is like like everything you work towards like you work so
00:39:43.560
hard to build your career and something like putting out a song like that could very well unravel all of
00:39:48.160
it but i always think like what is even the point of having it if i'm not going to use it to do
00:39:52.860
something like to do something good like to put something in the world or leave something behind
00:39:56.820
that is good inherently or is meant for good intention people so it's like i don't if that's what it
00:40:02.320
costs like if it costs me sacrificing pieces of myself that i believe in or i feel very strongly
00:40:08.160
about i don't want it like i don't want the fame i don't want the money i don't want any of it
00:40:12.320
if it means i have to like hide certain pieces so i that's why i said i really admire you for doing that
00:40:18.460
like and you being a white woman is it's it's very important that women who look like you do the same
00:40:23.580
thing it's like it's just like when i stand up or you stand up for trans women it's important that cis
00:40:29.160
women are fighting alongside them it's important that we check each other it's important that we
00:40:34.320
clock each other and we tell each other like it's important that we believe in these things and we
00:40:38.120
talk about them openly too because it matters yeah because no one's free until we're all free
00:40:43.540
i know what i mean so i i admire you for that i think it's i think it's fantastic and the fact
00:40:48.200
that you continue to do it i truly believe just like just like megan trainer i truly believe good
00:40:54.120
people are rare and that's why you've lasted this long like that's what you're doing so well
00:40:58.420
thank you i'll give you more flowers i'll give them all to you maryn no that means so much i mean
00:41:02.860
like you've just found like a really brilliant way of well obviously speaking to your audience but
00:41:09.120
also growing an audience because of your honesty but also the way that you articulate even if it's
00:41:14.120
like you're eviscerating someone you're doing it from a place of like the building blocks of
00:41:20.700
the the educational purpose of it thank you so that's really fucking hard to do and i speak as
00:41:27.100
someone that doesn't do it well like i am extremely emotional and like i should have taken like
00:41:34.060
debate team in high school or something so i could properly form a sentence in person with people
00:41:38.440
like just if i'm angry i feel you i just cry yeah i feel you so twitter that's why twitter was always
00:41:44.120
like it's good for the way i know it's like i can do this and like think about what my words are but
00:41:48.960
like no it's like a really uh once in a generational type of thing that you've created and it's like as
00:41:56.720
someone that's like always consumed media like i i like grew up on britney and christina and like
00:42:01.740
i i was like this kind of pop cultural thing of creators like you there's a lot of people making
00:42:09.920
incredible content but also like figuring out how to like do it in a really succinct impactful way
00:42:15.760
that's not distracted it's like extremely laser focused it's just very inspiring that's very
00:42:21.400
sweet thank you so much yeah i sometimes i describe it as like like when you have to give your dog pills
00:42:26.140
put it in cheese and give it to them oh my god see like you just to my audience i'm like come here i'm
00:42:31.480
gonna give you this pill but don't worry it's gonna taste good and then you'll be healthy and everyone
00:42:34.660
will it'll it'll be fine but i always tell people too i'm like i know if i'm your introduction to
00:42:40.040
intersectional feminism i think that's fantastic i think it's wonderful and i always say please don't
00:42:44.320
stop with me yeah there are far more people that are far more educated than i and far more like
00:42:49.920
equipped to explain things to you in a much more historical and factual way my way is telling people
00:42:55.780
to suck my wiener sure that works for you period works for me too you're the gateway drug there you
00:43:00.880
go that's why i said you just start with don't stop with me you can start with me just don't stop
00:43:04.900
with me but i i really do appreciate that and i appreciate um your fucking artistry i think you're
00:43:10.720
just i think you're so fantastic and i think honestly a lot of times women who write like
00:43:16.080
write music for a long time period you guys are some of the most genius women alive first of all
00:43:22.320
that's always like the way your brain works i envy that i have no musical capabilities whatsoever i got
00:43:28.060
nothing i got nothing god said give that bitch funny and that's it yeah so that's what he gave me
00:43:33.460
and i'm like well yeah i can make you laugh that's for sure i can't i can't i can't romance you with
00:43:38.540
a song but yeah but it's still like a creative thing too because it's like some days i've got
00:43:41.920
nothing like some days i my brain deletes and like i forget how to write a song like i i just it's
00:43:47.980
everything is overthought and awful and like you just have to accept that those are the days where
00:43:52.140
you're like oh this was just like a chicken shit day just sucks i suck especially when you're
00:43:57.640
writing with moona they're too distracting yeah talented well i like thank god katie's here to write
00:44:02.240
some words because my brain's mush i'm just gonna be the singer today yeah for real okay so
00:44:08.080
to wrap us i will say just for a close some closing thoughts for anyone who's listening
00:44:14.280
any sort of aspiring just i would say just musician in general not having to do with beliefs or
00:44:19.020
ideology or anything like that do you have any i know being an artist i feel like especially like
00:44:23.800
you said with tiktok a lot of people are kind of taking rainbow road a little bit cutting out the
00:44:28.900
the part where they get to kind of cut their teeth like you were saying earlier so for any up-and-coming
00:44:34.140
artists or musicians or writers or anything like that do you have any advice for them and
00:44:37.980
entering this new kind of world of music it's kind of shifted like you said yeah drastically in the
00:44:42.380
last 10 years so and i have like so much you know sympathy for that too because i'm lucky i got in
00:44:48.260
before all of that i know was the only platform but i would just say like i know this is extremely
00:44:54.360
you know banal advice at this point but you just have got to be patient because if you believe in
00:45:02.880
your thing and almost you have to be delusional like you have to i tell people that all the time
00:45:08.840
i say that too i mean that's the word for it but like you can say like ambitious or whatever but
00:45:14.260
you're delusional yeah you have to have like a sparkle of that like you always know when someone
00:45:20.020
has too much and you're like okay my god you want this too bad people can smell it yeah um for real
00:45:25.900
no just be patient because like you know if you're making music in your bedroom in like the
00:45:31.640
midwest or if you're moving to la or nashville or wherever you just have to like swallow that pride
00:45:37.560
of like there are a lot of fucking talented people yeah in front of you in the line yeah and like if
00:45:44.260
you are good and you keep practicing and showing up and not being fucking late not flaking like whether
00:45:50.980
you write alone or with other people or whatever you want to do i'm just really kind of talking about
00:45:54.880
songwriters but our artists it's like you've got to grow your thing and find ways of course creatively
00:46:02.960
to to set it apart but like just it's okay if it doesn't happen this year like overnight yeah because
00:46:11.900
like for me i've gone through ebbs and flows in my career like it's been 10 years more so if you count
00:46:17.960
like my teenage years of touring but like i've had moments where i've had like massive hits that year
00:46:23.020
and then i've had like years where there hasn't been one yeah and but i can tour and like i can
00:46:28.060
build a fan base over time and like have something identity wise to say and like a connection with them
00:46:35.200
that goes beyond a big fucking song on tiktok or the chart like you have to build over time and that is
00:46:43.140
when you start to see artists have like decades long careers no for real and honestly when chapel was on
00:46:49.280
she's like some people i hate the industry plant shit and she's like because i've been doing this
00:46:53.740
for 10 years i got signed when i was like 14 yeah and i was like i know i know that about you but
00:46:58.900
she's but because people see her on tiktok they're like oh my god just like overnight everyone's talking
00:47:03.440
about her well everyone's overnight until like if you haven't heard of them so it's like there's always
00:47:09.200
a backstory i said that about my book when men were discrediting me getting a bestseller they were
00:47:14.820
saying like oh everyone's a bestseller i go you know why you think that because you don't fucking read
00:47:18.260

00:48:27.480
clearly can't read it for real you fucking illiterate bitch on top of that though i'm like on top of that
00:48:33.100
the fucking book thing i'm like okay well if it's so easy you go do it yeah let me know how it works
00:48:39.140
out yeah if it's so easy apparently it's so easy according to men who uh never read can barely read
00:48:44.020
um and got scared to get called out in class to read apparently it's super easy so all and i went on
00:48:49.180
a book tour that whole summer and every time i talked about it my sister was like which is super
00:48:53.500
easy so no one should clap it's like super fucking easy don't worry about it it's not impressive so true
00:48:58.360
really easy you just go out there and do it that's why everyone does it that's why they're like
00:49:02.340
oh it's so easy what she does yeah and you're like okay yeah then you go do it i know i also get
00:49:07.400
what you mean too about like there's a lot of talented people in the world i think that all the
00:49:11.300
time too that's why i think people like you have such long careers and like establish such like
00:49:16.340
strong roots because you're a good person and you're really fucking good at what you do like
00:49:20.880
it's just it's impossible to not see you that's what i always think like that's operating from i think
00:49:26.000
a scarcity mindset when people are like oh like what about this what about that uh i always think
00:49:30.580
i'm gonna shine regardless so all the talented people let's all go together yeah like let's let's
00:49:36.460
link arms and listen i go through that too everyone does it's human like the scarcity thing or just like
00:49:43.080
feeling an envy like because it's happening for your friend and not you like that's normal and that's
00:49:48.640
you just have to like hunker down again for like the ebb and the flow like if you are constantly
00:49:55.120
like anvil on the gas pedal you're gonna burn out really quick yeah you're not gonna keep people
00:50:01.320
around you're gonna like probably crumble yourself like you know mentally yeah and there's just no
00:50:07.220
longevity in the short game so for me this is why i've said like i'm glad american idol and the voice
00:50:13.560
and like all these competitions like rejected me like when i auditioned in my teen years you listing
00:50:19.480
all of them there's like 10 there's probably more i haven't mentioned but i was like thank god
00:50:24.480
yeah there's quite a few i think like you i would have burned through it like i would have gotten so
00:50:29.580
over it and then like i wouldn't i wouldn't have been ready talent wise or mentally yeah so it's kind
00:50:35.740
of like if you have this massive fucking tiktok moment yeah it's like amazing and people are like
00:50:40.800
they've got eyes on you then it's like what's next yeah dance like yeah you have to you have to dance
00:50:46.860
yeah wearing matching outfits and now you have to create a dance yeah literally my one of my first
00:50:52.280
when i first blew up a brand reached out to me i don't even remember what it was and they were like
00:50:56.300
oh if you want to work with drew and we're like okay cool like my agent's kind of talking to them
00:50:59.900
and they were like yeah um we're doing this tiktok dance and like this is what it is and they sent it
00:51:04.940
to me and my agent didn't really know me that well at the time because we'd only been working together
00:51:08.880
for a couple months and she was like how do you feel about this i was like oh no yeah i don't do that
00:51:14.320
so yeah oh no no no no no tell them thank you peace and blessings on your household no thank
00:51:18.900
you yeah if i'm doing it and no shade but if i'm doing it it's as a joke that's what i mean yeah
00:51:24.360
that's what i'm saying for money i'm drunk no and i'm with my friends yeah it's for funsies yeah
00:51:30.260
funsies that's different that being said um for the right amount of money would i do it
00:51:34.000
