This week we welcome the self described "ramblin' soul" that is singer-songwriter Melissa Carper, the Austin, TX treasure who's been highly acclaimed by NPR, Rolling Stone, and No Depression. Melissa introduces us to her rescue dog Georgia Peach who is suspected to be about 10 years old and looks to be part Whippet and part Mountain Cur. We also can't have a conversation about dogs without including Betty Boo who was a Black Lab/American Bulldog mix and had a profound impact on Melissa.
Melissa's latest album Borned in Ya was released on July 19th and is brimming with her signature blend of jazz, vintage R&B, and old-school country. To order and see tour dates visit melissacarper.com
Melissa's shout out goes to the Doris Day Animal Foundation that was founded in 1978 as the Doris Day Pet Foundation by legendary performer, with a straightforward mission that continues to this day: to help animals and the people who love them. As a grant-giving charity, DDAF funds other 501(c)(3) organizations across the United States that directly care for and protect animals.
