Mother Road : Artistry Unleashed
Take a soul-stirring road trip with Grace Potter , celebrated as one of the greatest voices in Rock , as she unleashes her fifth studio LP , Mother Road
Released on August 18 , 2023 , Mother Road is an audacious and daring album that deconstructs Potter ’ s deepest thoughts , fears , personal triumphs , and regrets with brutal honesty . Drawing inspiration from John Steinbeck ’ s The Grapes of Wrath , where Route 66 is dubbed the “ Mother of all roads ... the road of flight ,” Potter embarked on a cross-country journey , hoping to gain perspective on her life . While doing so , she discovered buried memories that fueled her creativity , shaping an album that explores the roads she could have taken .
Produced by Eric Valentine — who also happens to be Potter ’ s husband — Mother Road encompasses soulful rock , roots , funk , country , and R & B . Grace ’ s powerhouse vocals , complemented by her top-flight band , make for an expansive soundscape . The album ’ s ten original tracks are a musical adventure . From the searing slide guitar and attitude in “ Ready Set Go ” to the heartfelt tribute to anti-heroines in “ Lady Vagabond ,” each song captivates listeners with emotional depth . At the heart of the project lies “ Little Hitchhiker ,” co-written with Natalie Hemby . The song reimagines Grace ’ s own profound experience of running away from home at the tender age of nine years old .
Grace Potter ’ s electrifying tour is currently continuing to unfold across the U . S , with unforgettable performances throughout the country . Her two sold-out shows in Vermont will be held at The Shelburne Museum as part of the Ben & Jerry ’ s Concerts on The Green series on September 15 and September 16 .
