This podcast opens with a play of her new single with Barry, Good Miles to Go, and the opening track Livin’ For Love off her brilliant 2022 album, Outsider.

Jackie Bristow’s website, jackiebristow.com reads: ‘The lure of the road has always been a defining motivation. She took her first musical steps in Gore, in the South Island of New Zealand, honed her craft in the pubs and clubs of Sydney, Australia, and found her voice in the United States, where she has continued to enhance her reputation as a soulful, seductive independent recording artist and dynamic live performer.

‘Like Joni Mitchell, Shawn Colvin and Bonnie Raitt, Jackie has created a body of work that will endure, finely shaded songs that are at once personal and universal, recording with her long-time musical partner, Australian-born guitarist and producer Mark Punch.

‘American Songwriter has hailed Jackie as ‘crafting some of the most beautiful, compelling Americana today’.’
