Margo Price

Nearly a decade ago, Margo Price turned Nashville on its head with her breakthrough debut solo album, Midwest Farmer’s Daughter. Released when bro-country dominated the airwaves, it showcased an artist unafraid to double down on what she loved: classic country songs written from both intellect and gut, hell-bent on truth-telling and timeless urgency. Respected by peers, praised by critics, and beloved by fans, Price carved out a lane where independent-minded, insurgent country music could thrive alongside the mainstream. She became an ardent fighter for her beliefs in a genre where the norm is to shut up and sing—a trailblazer who redefined what it means to be a modern country artist.

Now she’s back with Hard Headed Woman, an exquisite album that reconnects with her roots and pays tribute to the art of the country song. Inspired by legends she now calls colleagues and friends, this record is both a look forward and a look back—a way to march ahead while staying true to yourself when shortcuts are around every corner, and a reminder to stay connected with where you’re from. It’s a promise and a manifesto, a love song to both a city and a genre, and a defiant cry for individuality.
