Interview: Caleb Lee Hutchinson’s “Slot Machine Syndrome” EP Takes Country Roots In Dynamic Directions – AH: Regarding what you listen to, do you think that people might be surprised by what kinds of music you like? CLH: Shuffle on my phone is dangerous! I grew up on old Country and Classic Rock, and very early in my teenage years, I got very much into heavy metal and punk. I was weirdly into Black Flagg when I was around 12. These days, I listen to a lot of emo. I would say that’s what annoys most people who ride with me down the road. I love Dashboard Confessional. I’m a huge Say Anything fan. There’s Taking Back Sunday, tons of it. I think, weirdly, there are a lot of parallels between country, Americana, and emo. – Read more at American Highways
Lauren Alaina Opens Up About Pandemic Depression and New Album: “Writing Was Really Healing For Me” – Yeah, I didn’t realize how much of who I am came from being on stage until I couldn’t do it anymore. I would get into this routine on the road where I’d just go through the motions until that one hour of the day, which was my favorite part. When that went away, it was like, ‘Oh… my gosh.’ Outside of my career itself, even, it was just realizing that what we all do on a daily basis can all go away. That gave us all a much greater appreciation for our lives. It really gives you a lot of perspective. I’m so excited for us to get back to some normalcy and safety for everyone. Boy, when we get there, we’re gonna be ready to roll, aren’t we? – Read more at American Songwriter
