I spoke with Mary Andrews of Glide Magazine recently about Mickey Newbury, the new album, songwriting and other things. Mary also interviewed Susan Newbury-Oakley, Mickey’s widow, about the project.

Susan Newbury (Newbury’s widow) described Peters’ tribute to Mickey. “Her delivery is intimate.She has lived through the same experiences and that transfers into every nuance of the lyric. Her decision not to change pronouns in “She Even Some Me Up to Say Goodbye” was brilliant . . . . She didn’t force the song to be a ‘girl’s’ song, but stayed true to the heartache Mickey wrote in that lyric.”
