Margo Price has, in three remarkable solo albums, cemented herself as a force in American music. She has never shied away from the sounds that move her, the pain that’s shaped her, or the topics that tick her off, like music industry double standards, the gender wage gap, or the plight of the American farmer. (In 2021, she even joined the board of Farm Aid.)
On her fourth full-length album Strays, she’s taking on substance abuse, self-image, abortion rights, and orgasms. The 10-song record tears into a broken world desperate for remedy. And who better to tell it? Price has done plenty of her own rebuilding—or as she shout sings in explanation on “Been to the Mountain” - “I have been to the mountain and back alright”—and finds herself, at long last, free.
