Michaela Anne | One Love Song

Honky tonks, country music and dancing have a big presence in my life. I wrote this song with my friend Maya de Vitry from the band the Stray Birds and we intentionally wanted to try and capture that feeling of falling in love in a bar, over a dance, Urban Cowboy style. It’s inspired by the notion of how quickly things can change in ones heart and through music. For me, it’s a song of romantic hope, set in a dirty dim lit bar with George Jones’ aching voice as the soundtrack.

This past year I’ve been touring a lot with Sam Outlaw who’s based in Los Angeles so I’ve been going to CA more often and been working with a lot of the musicians who play or have played in his band. I got together with a group of those musicians to record the tune out in Echo Park since we’d been playing it together. It features Elijah Ocean and Molly Jenson on vocals, Stephen Musselman (guitar), Aaron Goodrich (drums) and Dan Destiny (fiddle).
