This month’s Artist to Watch is Margo Price, a Nashville musician who’s getting attention for her no-frills classic country sound.

She’s been a mainstay of her town’s vibrant music scene for many years now, but the release of her debut LP Midwest Farmer’s Daughter (out last month on Jack White’s Third Man Records) is putting Price in front of a national audience. She highlighted the album at an NPR Music Showcase at SXSW (one of the best things Bruce Warren saw while he was down in Austin), and just last weekend appeared as the musical guest on SNL.

Watch Price perform “Since You Put Me Down” on the show below and tune in to XPN to hear more from this Artist to Watch.
