Hello fellow citizens & friends around the world,

Welcome back to Songs From Home, it’s episode 46 and our country has a new president-elect and the first woman vice president elect!

There are so many bridges that need to be built and we are all going to need to roll up our
sleeves on both sides of the chasm...

This song, “It’s OK To Be Sad" is from my new album “The Dirt And The Stars” and it speaks to my own emotions right now in this turbulent time…I am singing as much to myself as I am to anyone who wants to receive it.

Could there be healing instead, instead of breaking I’m hoping
That the cracks beginning to spread is me breaking open
And if I let everything in, the shadows as well as the light
How else could I know I’m alright, how else would I know?

I’d also like to point you to my friend Allison Moorer’s feed today, (gorgeous singer, fabulous songwriter/grammy + oscar nominee, critically acclaimed author of “Blood: A Memoir” ) she kindly invited me to be her guest on her weekly Sunday Selfie Series. I tried my best to answer her questions as honestly andunselfconsciously as possible, although it’s a surprise how hard it can be when it’s your turn in the barrel…

Also thanks for my new ball cap #podsaveamerica @crookedmedia

Until the next time, stay well, stay strong, wear your mask, carry on and #staymighty !
