367 - Maia Sharp - New Album, Mercy Rising, Plus Art Garfunkel & Bonnie Raitt

California native Maia Sharp has written songs for a variety of folks, including Bonnie Raitt, Cher, Paul Carrack, Edwin McCain and Trisha Yearwood. At the same time, she's issued critically-acclaimed albums on her own. Maia’s also collaborated with the legendary Art Garfunkel and, more recently, teamed with songwriting partner Anna Schulze as Roscoe & Etta. She returns with her eighth album, called Mercy Rising, and it sounds like nothing she’s done before. Some of it is dark and eerie, you might expect that after a year of being locked down. But, there’s also an immediacy - as if she’s singing right next to you - and aren’t we all in need of some humanness right now?New new record drops May 7th
