Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Grace Potter conceived of the concept for Mother Road on a cross-country trip from California to Vermont, a voyage she took in preparation for returning to her home state with her husband and son in tow. The relocation happened during the early years of the COVID-19 pandemic, but unlike so many lockdown-inspired records, Mother Road has a gigantic sense of space: it's not about living alone so much as it is about connecting with the land as a way of rediscovering yourself. That road trip and its accompanying move dredged up old memories that Potter chose to process by making a bold, colorful roots rock record filled with funky rhythms and big hooks. Often, Mother Road seems to have a spiritual connection to Sheryl Crow -- there's a shared sense of classic rock adoration that's knowledgeable enough to sidestep cliches -- but Potter isn't patterning herself after any specific musician. Rather, she's following well-worn paths and finding new things to observe there, a quality that keeps Mother Road feeling fresh and alive. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
