Like Molly Brown By Carrie Newcomer

Here's to all the strong women who roll up their sleeves and keep rowing!
And a deep bow to the ancestors who's lives of courage and hope are the shoulders we stand upon.
- Carrie
This song appears on the album "Until Now" on Available Light Records

"We can't just be healed, we must be transformed."
Carrie Newcomer's music has always explored the intersection of the spiritual and the daily, the sacred and the ordinary. Over the course of her career she has become a prominent voice for progressive spirituality, social justice and interfaith dialogue. Her ability for sharp observation of the world lead the Dallas Morning News to rave, "She's the kind of artist whose music makes you stop, think and then say, 'that is so true.'" She has been described as "a soaring songstress" by Billboard, a "prairie mystic" by the Boston Globe and Rolling Stone has declared that Newcomer "asks all the right questions." Author Barbara Kingsolver wrote, "She's a poet, storyteller, snake-charmer, good neighbor, friend and lover, minister of the wide-eyed gospel of hope and grace."

We lived in southern Indiana for about 8 years. They have the best music anywhere…Carrie is the best!!

I am a native Texan. I so needed this today. I don't know what has happened to our state.

[@bridgetbaker3907]

I am a native Texan who moved to Indiana and it is painful for me to even think about what has happened there this week.

[@CarrieNewcomer]

My thoughts are with you and the women of Texas. What a tragic heart breaking moment. We’ll keep working toward justice even on the days that justice was not served.

[@h.philipwestjr.1401]

Thank you, Carrie. Your upbeat song kindles hope in a discouraging time, and not just for women.

[@TwinFalls88]

Love Carrie's faster paced, funner songs such as this one and "room at the table". Would love more of the faster fun ones like these 💙

One more masterpiece of yours ... I like the celtic swing in the mandolin and the fiddle ... Gorgeous tribute!!!

[@paulhinson2078]

Praise God for this (from Atlanta, GA). Sharing. Thank you...truly inspired.

[@jenniferamy-dressler9237]

Love the song!! Love the visuals!! But, I have friends who could never watch them; unfortunately, it would trigger epileptic seizures and migraines for some. It would be lovely if you would consider also posting a version with less visual stimulation so they could view as well as listen.... Thanks for considering!

[@lisalandgraf9122]

Great song! Will there be a list of who appears in this video? I recognize some but not all....

[@gregorywinner990]

Did you do a song back in the 90s about fishing with your father? What was the name if so, please?

[@CarrieNewcomer]

It was called “My Fathers Only Son” thanks for remembering!

[@suethompson3635]

@@CarrieNewcomer "My Father's Only Son" was such a gift to me; I filled the same role in my family. Thanks for naming it . . .
