JPR Live Session: Melissa Carper

Ways To Subscribe

The bassist and singer/songwriter joined us to chat about her new album called Daddy's Country Gold.

As a child, Carper (who was nicknamed 鈥淒addy鈥 years ago by her bandmates) immersed herself in the sounds of Hank Williams, Patsy Cline, Johnny Cash, and other greats from her parents鈥 collection, but it was a specific gift from her father - a full collection of Jimmie Rodgers recordings - that sparked the fire behind the sound Carper has developed.

The new album Daddy's Country Gold is a compilation album of sorts -- a collection of Carper's best material drawn from across the various bands she maintains.
