I spend about an hour with Nashville singer/songwriter Laura Sawosko. Her sixth album, Not What I Do, comes out on April 18. We get into her career - including her big move to Nashville, how she interprets the idea that music is not a genre, and what moves her as a music creator. We also talk about her overcoming a paralyzed vocal cord, and how that's influenced her sound.And stay to the end to hear the FEATURED SONG:  Laura Sawosko - "Not What I Do"<a href="https://www.laurasawosko.com/" target="_blank">More on Laura Sawosko</a><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?si=9Jid1FV5lsynCdUZ&v=sIjGgqAZLNk&feature=youtu.be" target="_blank">See the "Rhinestones for Pearls" video!</a> <a href="https://www.patreon.com/posts/125786865" target="_blank">BONUS MxTRA VIDEO: Laura's 49-year-old family restaurant!</a>~~~SUPPORT THIS PODCAST!<a href="https://www.patreon.com/MUSICisnotaGENRE" target="_blank">Join Patreon</a><a href="https://www.bonfire.com/store/rec--mxg-merch/" target="_blank">Get some merch</a>~~~*intro music credit: <a href="https://recarea.bandcamp.com/track/sing-owwt" target="_blank">REC - "Sing Owwt"</a>*mid roll music credit: <a href="https://recarea.bandcamp.com/track/outerloper" target="_blank">The Drop - "Outerloper"</a>

MUSIC is not a GENRE

Laura Sawosko - Interview Edition #42 | MxG - Season 7 Episode 22

MUSIC is not a GENRE goes beyond music critique, opinion, and gimmicks to get at the heart of music & how it connects to the world - from the perspective of a TRUE MUSIC INSIDER. Every kind of music is discussed and connected to cultural, social & political issues in unexpected ways. It challenges music lovers to think as if THERE IS NO BOX AT ALL. No music can be confined to a genre. And music itself can't be separated from the rest of the world.
