Editor's note

Kate Campbell writes quiet, observant Southern stories.

Her songs feel like short stories set to music, drawing from folk and rock without fitting neatly into one category.

Start with 'Fordlandia' for her historical storytelling, then try 'Everybody Knows Elvis' for her Southern themes. They both show what she does best.

Campbell's songs handle history and place with a novelist's eye. 'Fordlandia' tells the story of Henry Ford's failed utopian city in the Amazon, while 'Everybody Knows Elvis' and 'A Cotton Field Away' show her interest in Southern themes and American culture. They're quiet pieces that don't try to be anthems.

She released her first album 'Moonpie' in 1999, followed by records like 'Woman and Guitar' in 2002 and 'One Voice' in 2016. Her band has included musicians like Luke Fraser on guitar and Jimmy Stewart on bass.
