Today's #NewMusicMonday features a pair of a pair of Americana artists traveling down new sonic roadways, broadening their reach and the impact of their music.

"Fake Empire" is the lead single from …but I’d rather be with you, an album of covers she recorded in quarantine. The album is out via Compass Records on August 28.
