Listen "Kaitlin Butts"
Episode Synopsis
Episode 308: For country singer Kaitlin Butts, 2023 was very good and 2024 was even better, with an Americana Award nomination, praise in Rolling Stone magazine, and festival dates she'd been dreaming of. Her reputation and acclaim grew on the strength of her feisty stage temperament, her bold and cutting voice, and her fearless songs. Raised in Oklahoma on theater and country music, the iconic Rodgers and Hammerstein musical set in her state became a touchstone. Years later, she'd take the bold step of writing and recording a concept album reacting to and enlarging on the themes of the show. It's called Roadrunner!, and it was among the most impactful albums in Americana and country music last year.
