Dolly And Emmylou
We have reached the final episode of Reversal Of The Muse Series One, so we’ve been saving an extra special podcast for last. Earlier this year, Laura travelled over to Nashville Tennessee to speak with two legendary musicians, Dolly Parton and Emmylou Harris. While we’re sure they need no introduction, Dolly Parton’s incredible career has spanned nearly five decades, with songs that are ingrained in generations gone by and those still to come. She’s in the elite group of musicians to have received Emmy, Grammy, Tony and Oscar nominations, and in 2011 she was awarded a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. Emmylou Harris has built a similarly prosperous career; the twelve-time Grammy winner is marvelled at for her beautiful songwriting and sublime voice. In this broad and enchanting conversation with two of the greatest feminine creators in music, Dolly and Emmylou reminisce on how they started making music together, which has lead to their latest album ‘The Complete Trio Collection’. The album is feminine creativity at its finest, as joined with Lisa Ronstadt, the blend of the three harmonies highlights the unique resonance of the female voice. Dolly’s work has been particularly influential to Laura, as she’s learnt guitar techniques from playing Dolly’s songs. Laura shares that she’s inspired by how Dolly has maintained femininity, whilst being an extremely talented guitar player and songwriter. http://dollyparton.com/ http://www.emmylouharris.com/ http://www.reversalofthemuse.com/
