Product Details

Michaela Anne built her reputation in Brooklyn's country-leaning folk scene before relocating to Nashville, where her songwriting deepened considerably. Oh To Be That Free finds her working in a lineage of confessional American folk that draws equally from classic country and the kind of plain-spoken emotional directness you hear in writers like Gillian Welch, anchoring deeply personal experience in melody that feels timeless rather than trendy.


Nashville, TN based songwriter Michaela Anne returns with her new album Oh To Be That Free, the follow up to her 2019 Yep Roc debut Desert Dove. The record was produced by Michaela and Aaron Shafer-Haiss. 'I wrote this collection of songs as a simultaneous reckoning and healing," says Michaela Anne. "They came after a period in my life of self sabotage and unraveling by my own doing. But during the making of this record, life altering experiences occurred and a deeper layer of meaning for these songs appeared. Between the time we started to record and the very final mastering, I conceived, grew and birthed my first child. In the middle of this pregnancy, and the middle of making this record, my mother suffered a devastating and debilitating hemorrhagic stroke. These songs became healers for me as though I had written them for my future self."
