The Way I Should - 30th Anniversary
With The Way I Should, Iris DeMent stepped boldly into new territory, delivering a collection that balanced her fierce lyrical conviction with tender vulnerability. Released in 1996, this third studio album from the revered Americana singer-songwriter expanded on her folk and country roots, blending sharp political commentary with deeply personal storytelling.Backed by a fuller, more contemporary sound and featuring collaborations with legends like Delbert McClinton and Mark Knopfler, DeMent doesn't shy away from weighty topics. From government corruption ("Wasteland of the Free") to working-class struggle ("Quality Time"), she gives voice to the disillusioned with searing honesty and soulful grit.Yet for all it's pointed critique, The Way I Should is just as powerful in it's quieter moments. Songs like "When My Mornin' Comes Around" and "Keep Me God" shimmer with grace, hope, and an unwavering moral compass. DeMent's unmistakable voice anchors every track with a sense of authenticity that's rare and resonant.The Way I Should is a fearless statement from a singular voice in American music. Timeless in message and rich in heart, it remains one of DeMent's most compelling and relevant works.In celebration of the album's 30th anniversary, Yep Roc Records is pressing The Way I Should on vinyl for the first time. The album is remastered by Mike Westbrook of Material Mastering.

Iris DeMent - Our Town

Up the street, beside that red neon light
That's where I met my baby on one hot summer night
He was the 'tender and I ordered the beer
It's been forty years and I'm still sitting here

Elaine Miles, who was stopped by ICE for nothing more than being non-white, and accused of having a fake First Peoples' nation ID, has a firm place in my heart.

The world we live in today is the very antithesis of the world she helped create, and which we visited once a week.

Thank you, Elaine. ❤️

Still under the radar but every time I hear an #IrisDement 🎶 I’m amazed

🎼#SweetIsTheMelody so hard to come by
It’s so hard to make every #note bend just right

U lay down the hours & leave not one trace
But a 🎶 for the 💃 is there in its place
