Recently, the dads sat down with Grammy-nominated songwriter, alt-country artist and father, Jeremy Ivey. But you may know him better as Margo Price’s husband. Ivey has a new album, It’s Shape Will Reveal Itself, out now on Soggy Anvil Records, and it’s a heavy look at the world around us. We will talk about his role as Price’s husband, their partnership in raising their children and songwriting, and how their lives together (and apart) have influenced his art.Show Notes1:10: Donnie admits to being a fan boy and interrupting Jeremy’s dinner before a show in Charlotte, NC, several years ago. What he wanted to ask then, and could ask now, was how Jeremy got into songwriting, and it all started with reading great poetry.3:12: Jeremy explains how It’s Shape Will Reveal Itself came together, and the story of “Little Bird” and his daughter’s role on the track.5:15: A discussion of how the track order, the playing and technical recording impacts the album's feel, through a patchwork of old and new songs. Also, a CRAZY story about Joan Baez.10:35: Jeremy’s approach and process, supporting Margo Price and his personal career, and the impact of fatherhood. And a cautionary tale about selling your car with a young child to make an album -- this one worked out, but don’t do it, says Jeremy.14:10: Balancing home and touring. How Margo and Jeremy find the balance for their music and family, and the hardest part of staying off the road is the FOMO.16:20: Balancing the creative, romantic and parenting partnerships, and the annual cycle of creativity and support.19:30: What does a normal day look like for the Ivey/Price household? Pretty normal, explains Jeremy. It’s complete chaos, with a bunch of toys on the floor.21:40: Jeremy explains his writing process and how the chaos around him influences it. And the honest balance between self-indulgence and giving in to the process of songwriting.22:57: The difference between songs created for Margo Price’s albums and Jeremy Ivey’s albums.26:40: The American experience provides an incredible context for creating meaningful and interesting art.27:20: The Dad Life Sound Check.Mentioned in the EpisodeEmily DickinsonThe Beat Poets PAIN: The Board Game by Sampson StarkweatherDrew Carroll The Bomb ShelterJoan BaezBonnie Raitt Emmylou Harris DulcimerThin LizzyThe DublinersBuffalo CloverBrittany Howard and Alabama Shakes Darrin Bradbury Anti RecordsFarm Aid Anthony BourdainKhalil GibranReferences/Songs:Theme Music: “Dark Country Rock” by MoodmodeLittle Bird - Jeremy IveyEdge of Darkness - Jeremy IveyDon’t Sleep on Your Dreams - Jeremy IveyWhiskey In A Jar - The DublinersClose to You - Margo PriceTennessee Song - Margo PriceA Long Way From Home - The KinksGone to Stay - Margo PriceHe Stopped Loving Her Today - George JonesLots of Beginnings - Nathan Evans Fox
