In episode 24, I sit down with Erin Rae. Erin is a singer, songwriter, and guitarist based in Nashville, Tennessee. Erin and I discuss her life, growing up in Jackson, TN, and Bellevue, a neighboring community of Nashville. Erin discusses her journey in music, which started at home, with both her mother and father performing as local musicians and bringing her up in a house steeped in music. However, Erin didn’t really begin to focus on music until later than most musicians.Though she had always sung as a hobby, she didn’t learn to play the guitar until after high school and didn’t begin to focus on music until she was nearly 20 years old. We discuss her inspirations, musical career, and detachment from persona and labels as she moves into a new phase of life and recent progression in her musical career. We also discuss sobriety, recovery, and the fear and excitement that result from living life in the present and releasing the reigns of our own experience to something new. In this week’s wrap-up, Crystal and I discuss the history of Red Rock’s Amphitheatre, Jonathan Wilson of Topanga Canyon, Laurel Canyon heroes, Scott Walker, Slim Pickens, origins of heavy metal, Jerry Seinfeld and transcendental meditation, Marcus Gillis, and mindful meditation, and The Coal Miner’s Daughters Loretta Lynn and Crystal Gale, my wife, and wrap-up co-host’s namesakes. Please enjoy my honest and vulnerable conversation with Ms. Erin Rae.
