Especially on a debut album. Time and attention-strapped listeners size up an artist within a song or two, then move on or delve in further. Fortunately, it only takes Margo Price about twenty-eight seconds to convince you that you're hearing the arrival of a singular new talent. \u003ci\u003eHands of Time\u003c\/i\u003e, the opener on \u003ci\u003eMidwest Farmer's Daughter\u003c\/i\u003e, is an invitation, a mission statement and a starkly poetic summary of the 32-year old singer's life, all in one knockout, self-penned punch. Easing in over a groove of sidestick, bass and atmospheric guitar, Price sings, \"When I rolled out of town on the unpaved road, I was fifty-seven dollars from bein' broke . . .\" It has the feel of the first line of a great novel or opening scene in a classic film. There's an expectancy, a brewing excitement. And as the song builds, strings rising around her, Price recalls hardships and heartaches - the loss of her family's farm, the death of her child, problems with men and the bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere is no self-pity or over-emoting. Her voice has that alluring mix of vulnerability and resilience that was once the province of Loretta and Dolly. It is a tour-de-force performance that is vivid, deeply moving and all true. From the honky tonk comeuppance of \u003ci\u003eAbout To Find Out\u003c\/i\u003e, to the rockabilly-charged \u003ci\u003eThis Town Gets Around\u003c\/i\u003e to the weekend twang of \u003ci\u003eHurtin' (On The Bottle)\u003c\/i\u003e, Price adds fresh twists to classic Nashville country, with a sound that could've made hits in any decade. Meanwhile, the hard-hitting blues grooves of \u003ci\u003eFour Years of Chances\u003c\/i\u003e and T\u003ci\u003eennessee Song\u003c\/i\u003e push the boundaries further west to Memphis (the album was recorded at the legendary Sun Studio).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Third Man","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":50388492091723,"sku":"399315","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"LP","offer_id":50388492747083,"sku":"399316","price":27.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/1e14d569-1d74-4d17-bdd1-6c8ad8d7a194_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726343172","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/fr\/products\/midwest-farmer-s-daughter","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
