In this rambunctious, irreverent conversation in the Nashville Now cabin, Raitiere lets us into his songwriting process and also shares some behind-the-scenes tales of his friendship with the late Bob Weir and the lost project they were working on before the Grateful Dead icon’s death.   Country is Here… Nashville is Now.   Check out our Hear Now playlist on Spotify, updated weekly.

Becky G likes to joke that she’s like a cat with nine lives in the music industry. And after a career of making hits both in English and Spanish, experimenting with everything from pop to musica mexicana, she’s coming into her own more than ever and making exactly the music she wants. That’s where her new album 'Baraja Bendita' comes in: It’s a wildly eclectic, high-energy power burst of songs in Spanglish that bounce from club bangers to merengue to bachata. In a conversation with Deputy Music Editor Julyssa Lopez at the Rolling Stone Studio, Becky dove deep into how she made this album from an empowered place, her responsibility to represent her identity authentically, and her commitment to her community during turbulent times.
