As part of our Fandom series we have Sturgill Simpson telling us about one of his favorite new artists.

Angel Olsen

…I’d swim across two oceans just to play music with her.

Lyrical content, abstract chord structures…I love it.

Plus she also has this look in her eyes that reminds me of a girl I knew in high school that was smoking hot, but always made me feel like she might stab me if I turned my back.

*Editor’s Note: Sturgill Simpson plays a free show in LA on Saturday, July 19 at part of KCRW’s Country in the City!
