My Fantasy Funeral, the vaguely macabre podcast about designing your own funeral that I help produce, is reaching the end of its first season. The penultimate episode is a wonderful chat between host
Ryan Breegle and
Caitlin Rose.
Caitlin's two albums,
Own Side Now and
The Stand-In, are excellent. You could call them contemporary classic country but even that niche genrification is an oversimplification. She is a wonderful songwriter capable of writing songs soaked in melancholy and heartache. Her episode does a great job of encapsulating that heartache but also ensuring there's a martini-filled afterparty fueled by Fleetwood Mac's "Gypsy."
The episode is on
Spotify,
Apple,
Overcast, et al.
