Rosanne Cash

Sometimes the fragment of a conversation, the color of the sky, the image in a dream, has everything to do with where the song begins.

When my dad died a lot of songs came, and they're still coming.

As I started writing about loss and grief, I was taking what felt unmanageable and using my songwriting, my sense of poetry and discipline, to try and make it manageable.

Loss is the great unifier, the terrible club to which we all eventually belong.
