A few weeks ago, Spotify served up a new song to me - "Wilder Days," by Morgan Wade, and I was instantly taken with her voice. It seems to be a mix of Janis Joplin, Stevie Nicks, Bonnie Raitt, or Sheryl Crow. Anyhow, I haven't been surprised by a voice and a song's hook in a long time. She's also from Floyd, Virginia and will be playing at the 9:30 club soon.

I liked this, I heard some Brandi Carlile influences. But was distracted by her tattoos, shame. |
I like her and have been following her for a while, since the days she was just starting out and doing free shows. Happy to see her success. |
I'm late to the game, but Reckless has been my top album of 2022. Love that her voice is so distinctive, love the raw lyrics. I think she has great style, that video with Kip Moore was hot and on stage she usually seems to have a cool androgynous swagger that so unusual for a woman in country music. |
It's too bad that country radio seems to have such a strict one woman at a time in heavy rotation policy. |
Melissa Etheridge she was at 9:30 club last night, first night of new tour. sounded amazing. great show. |
All I know is she was involved with a Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast member. |
Love her voice . . . the twangy-country-guitar-thing annoys me, though. |
