Loretta Lynn continued her six-decade run of being the Queen of Country this past week with the release of Full Circle, but there’s a new member of the royal family stepping forward by the name of Margo Price. Her recent signing to Jack White’s Third Man Records marked the first time that said label has taken on a new country artist, and the upcoming Midwest Farmer’s Daughter is one of our most anticipated albums of the year because of it (also because the initial singles “About to Find Out” and “Hurtin’ [On the Bottle]” are fantastic).
The album will be out in just a few weeks, but before it does, you can now listen to the album opener “Hands of Time.” The song, which is the album’s longest track, is a heartbreaking epic detailing the true story of her family losing their farm in the rural Illinois town that she grew up in. You can listen to that below.
Midwest Farmer’s Daughter is out March 25 on Third Man.
