Hard Headed Woman by Margo Price

Hard Headed Woman, Margo Price's fifth studio album, arrived on Loma Vista Recordings in August 2025, and it finds the Nashville singer-songwriter back with the man who helped shape her first two records, Midwest Farmer's Daughter and All American Made. Matt Ross-Spang produced, the sessions went down at RCA Studio A, and the result is lean, warm and honky-tonk to the bone, a record that sounds like a band playing in one room rather than a stack of overdubs.

Price had a hand in writing all ten of the originals among its twelve tracks and fills out the set with two covers, Waylon Jennings' "Kissing You Goodbye" and Steven Knudson's "Love Me Like You Used to Do". "Don't Let The Bastards Get You Down" is the one with the most bite, its title a mission statement all by itself. The album was nominated for the first Grammy ever handed out for Best Traditional Country Album.
