Welcome to Quarantuned With the Good Graces! Quarantuned is an interview podcast that focuses on staying creative, present, and connected during these unsettled and isolating times. In episode 10 of “Quarantuned,” I’m talking with Tracy Simpson, a very talented singer and songwriter, and the co-director of Southern Songwriters Association, a group based around the Fort Mill, SC area dedicated to the promotion and support of local songwriting.

Tracy and I met through SSA, so naturally we talked a lot about the organization. We also dove pretty deep into songwriting, her newly released singles, the value of communities, the beauty of ungainliness, and much more. It was such a relaxed, rich conversation and I truly enjoyed it so much.
