128: Malin Pettersen
from New Slang Hosted by Thomas Mooney, Malin Pettersen
Send us Fan Mail On Episode 128, I'm joined by Norwegian singer-songwriter Malin Pettersen for this episode. She has this new album called Wildhorse that's officially out Friday, October 16. I really enjoyed this conversation with Malin about the writing and recording process of Wildhorse, which takes a pretty big leap sonically from her previous release, the 2019 EP Alonesome. As the title alludes, that EP was a bare-bones acoustic effort. With Wildhorse, she really returns to a warm, rich full-band sound. It's really one of the album's strengths. Recorded in Nashville, Malin and company--an all-star cast of notable Nashville players--capture a gorgeously warm and vibrant album that draws from '70s Countrypolitan, sunny California & Laurel Canyon country-folk, and the rich moods and tones of the South in a Bobbie Gentry Delta Sweete kind of way. During this interview, we talk about writing and recording the album, traveling back and forth between the US and Norway, the cultural exchange of traditional ballads and folk songs, the personal growth found within Wildhorse, being a voiceover actress (she was recently Kacey Musgraves in the Norwegian version of Scooby-Doo). This episode's presenting partner is Desert Door Texas Sotol and The Blue Light Live.
