Margo Price has shared the opening track from her debut LP Midwest Farmer's Daughter (out March 25th) as an instant-grat download on iTunes and Amazon, and as a single on Spotify. "Hands of Time" is a bleeding country anthem that doubles as album centerpiece and biographical mission statement. Stream it below:

Midwest Farmer's Daughter was recorded at Sun Studios in Memphis, with Price pawning her wedding ring and selling her car to pay for the sessions. Next week she'll perform at NPR Music's SXSW showcase, billed next to Vince Staples and Anderson Paak, along with 5 other performances throughout the weekend. See her full schedule below:

In addition, yesterday morning the New York Times ran a massive '25 Songs That Tell Us Where Music Is Going' package, including Price's "Hurtin' (On The Bottle)" alongside songs by everyone from Rihanna, Coldplay, Run the Jewels, Kendrick + more. Read the incredibly compelling feature here.
