Michaela Anne is the Quintessential Indie Artist
Singer-songwriter Michaela Anne just may be the quintessential indie artist, one for whom the hustle never stops. She’s a working mom, a podcast host with her husband and bandmate, and the one in charge of keeping her music coming. Michaela Anne, who crowd-funded her new album These Are the Days, talks about the struggle to balance it all in an especially candid episode of Rolling Stone’s Nashville Now podcast, which dives deep into what it takes to stay on the road as a touring artist. Some days are harder than others, like a merch debacle that left her in tears, while others provide big wins: Michaela Anne will perform at Rolling Stone’s Stateside Festival this July Fourth.

Keke Palmer: The Rolling Stone Interview
On a new episode of The Rolling Stone interview, writer CT Jones sits down with I Love Boosters star Keke Palmer as the actress retraces her history from child-star to two-time Emmy Award winning actress and discusses her dreams about a legacy that doesn’t let pressure and stress get the best of her. At 32 years old, Palmer has spent more years as her family’s main breadwinner than not, after breaking out in Hollywood at 11-years-old with her lead role in the inspirational Spelling Bee film Akeelah and the Bee. Now, she holds a variety of titles all at the same time, singer, host, actress, and most importantly, single mother to her three-year-old son Leodis. Her latest film is Boots Riley’s I Love Booster, a radical, anticapitalist film about a down-on-her-luck fashion designer who “boosts” clothes from retailers with the help of her stylishly dressed entourage, the Velvet Gang. Palmer discusses how the themes of labor, creativity, and power show up on screen and in her own life — and how she’s redefining what success can look like. Learn more about your ad choices.
