Me Too 3:43 — — — A couple of years ago Claudia Nygaard ran into her hero John Prine outside a movie theater in Nashville, Tennessee. Prine, the 2018 Americana artist of the year, generously stopped for a short conversation and asked her how her career was going. “I’m not playing rooms the size you are” she replied, “but I’m making a living singing my own songs.” “Well then”, he said, “you are a big success aren’t you?” “Yes” she replied. “I’m a very LUCKY GIRL!” Later that night, reflecting on their conversation, Nygaard penned a song that last fall lived up to it’s title when she won the Tumbleweed Music Festival Songwriting Competition with it. That song is now the title cut of her new album “Lucky Girl”. — — Nygaard has won numerous awards for her writing, including the prestigious Kerrville Folk Festival songwriting competition. (She’s) an emotionally fearless songwriter. From the sensual and seductive “Tumblin Down” and “A Little Bit Embarrassed” to the scrappy “Ol’ Buick”, and “Stitches”, and from the heartbroken “Like A Moth” and “Oklahoma”, to the anger and ache of “Me Too” and “I Wonder”, Claudia slices into stories like a surgeon with a fish knife – scraping off scales and pulling back the flesh to expose the bones. These aren’t just songs she has written, they are stories, and her skill as a lyricist leaves the listeners of this album feeling like they have just watched thirteen little movies.
