125: Caitlin Canty

from New Slang Hosted by Thomas Mooney, Caitlin Canty

Send us Fan Mail On Episode 125, I'm joined by singer-songwriter Caitlin Canty. Canty just released the Woody Guthrie-influenced song "Where is the Heart of My Country" earlier this week (Listen here). She was largely inspired on a flight from California back to her Nashville home and seeing the US from high above. Much like her excellent 2018 album, Motel Bouquet, Canty's stark, but bold sound takes lead ushering in a heightened sense of uncertainty in Canty's vocals and words. And while she most certainly captures that tension and fracture we're all feeling in 2020, there's undoubtedly unwavering determination and a sense of community that still finds its way in there too. As one would say, it's always darkest before the dawn. During this interview, we talk about the journey of the song, songwriting, recording albums live, creating certain moods and tones for her songs, road testing, traveling and touring, the various pockets of the US that she's fallen in love with over the years, what she has planned for the rest of 2020, and a handful of heartwarming stories of resilience and strength in the aftermath of the March Tornado that tore through Nashville. This episode's presenting partner is Desert Door Texas Sotol and The Blue Light Live.
