[Pitchfork @pitchfork]

Kevin Morby had never left Middle America when 18 and Dylan-pilled, he boarded an eastbound train with $600, his guitar, and one friend waiting. Read @jennpelly's profile of the singer-songwriter, who since traded New York City for Kansas City

Last year I wrote 9,180 words about Margo Guryan and they appear as liner notes in this box set, ft interviews with family members, friends, admirers, and collaborators from across her career 🫶📷

From humble beginnings to the peaks of her 1968 baroque pop masterpiece Take a Picture and the collected Demos to the recent viral ubiquity of “Why Do I Cry”, Words and Music 3xLP Box Set captures the entirety of Margo Guryan’s career.
