Our country music’s next star, Margo Price, has come forward with a re-invention of her recent release “Change Of Heart” in collaboration with Sierra Ferrell, another big country name. Stolen from her recent album release Stray, they come together to mould the song into a more stripped back and acoustic version.
The original release charted as number 1 during 14 consecutive days in America. While the guitar riffs evoke us into an alt-rock subsequence after following her country voice of silk, you can’t help but fall for the electronic blues smothering, making up the whole song. Never failing to transition her songwriting into novel-like stories, she captured the backbone of the song and has revealed its core meaning in this new collaborative version.
Following her Stray and “Change Of Heart” release, she will be taking to the stage in London. On the 25th of August she will be hosting an intimate show at the Lafayette venue in South London. However, she has just announced an additional gig in the UK, following right after el London appearance. On the 26th August she will be performing at The London Road Festival in Bottesford.
These London appearances aren’t the only plans in her diary, though. The singer has a long journey ahead of her, visiting amphitheatre performances as well as arena bookings of which she will be sharing these dates with artists such as Chris Stapleton, Tyler Childers and Willie Nelson. She is now making her way through the United States and will be wrapping up on the 6th October, alongside Stapleton, at the Bryce Jordan Centre found in Pennsylvania.
Price took to this album in a kind, yet diligent, manner. Praising herself and observing the happenings of the outer world around her from a safe distance. A freedom-filled and mushroom fueled workpiece, taken to an asserted appreciation of her surroundings. This is her fourth studio album and a landmark in breaking the long awaited collaboration between the two country/folk singers on “Change Of Heart”.
During Women’s History Month, Margo Price says, “I’m real excited to share this stripped down take on ‘Change of Heart’ featuring Sierra Ferrell. Sierra is one of my favorite new voices in music and I loved getting to work with her on this acoustic version of the song.” She continues “I love to lift up other women in the genre when I see somebody putting out great art. In an industry that tries to drive us apart, it’s freeing to break down those barriers and say, “there is room for everyone.”
The brits should consider purchasing a London show to see Margo Price because, due to her track record, she doesn’t step on English grounds very often. Her last gig in the UK sits back in March, 2018, when she played at the Country 2 Country Festival hosted at the O2.
