Rachel Baiman interview

My guest this week is singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Rachel Baiman.We chat about Rachel's new record Common Nation of Sorrow, how she made the transition from being an instrumentalist to being a songwriter, how she re-imagined a little known John Hartford song for the new record, why it can be good to include covers on your records as a songwriter and much, much more.This was such an interesting conversation. I hope you get as much out of it as I did!MattMore info on RachelRachel's website - http://www.rachelbaiman.com/Follow Rachel:Instagram -  https://www.instagram.com/rachelbaiman/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/Rachelbaimanmusic/Rachel also mentioned a playlist of songs that inspired the production of Common Nation of Sorrow - you'll find it here on Spotify Hosted on Acast.
