Margo Price | SXSW 2023 Keynote

Margo Price has something to say but nothing to prove. In just three remarkable solo albums, the singer and songwriter has cemented herself as a force in American music and a generational talent. A deserving critical darling, 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). While the last few years have seen remarkable moments of acclaim - a Best New Artist Grammy nomination, Americana Music Honors, a Saturday Night Live performance, and just about every outlet and critics’ year-end Best Of list - Price is still hungry. On her fourth full-length Strays, a clear-eyed mission statement delivered in blistering rock and roll, she’s taking on substance abuse, self-image, abortion rights, and orgasms. Musically extravagant but lyrically laser focused, the 10-song record tears into a broken world desperate for remedy. And who better to tell it? Price has been to the mountain and back, but finds herself, at long last, free. Feral. Stray.

22:25 she is so delusional especially being in the music industry. The music industry is dominated by women in freedom of expression. What double standards?

[@sirdouglas2010]

Thanks for mansplaining the experience of women in the music business lol. I was a publicist for 15 years and it's much more difficult on the business and entertainment side for women. The majority of it is a good ol' boys club whether men acknowledge it or not. Especially in country music and now more than ever with idiots like the Daily Wire moving to Nashville with their fossil fuel-funded clickbait wedge issues where all women must be conservative christian meek trad wives who work, have kids (or are seen as useless) and do all the housework. If women dominate the music industry why are there so few of them when they make up half the population?
