Margo Price Postpones Album Release & Shares John Lennon Cover

Margo Price postponed the May 8 release of her upcoming Sturgill Simpson-produced album, That’s How Rumors Get Started, due to the coronavirus COVID-19 outbreak. The singer-songwriter and her husband Jeremy Ivey also shared video of John Lennon’s “Nobody Told Me.”

Along with the Lennon cover, Price also released a statement explaining her decision to postpone the album. Read it below:

Sometimes circumstances are beyond our control. I would say that’s the case for folks everywhere in the world right now. Life is postponed until further notice. I would love nothing more than for everyone to hear my next album in it’s entirety but it’s just not gonna be May 8th. More realistically, it’s going to be this summer. Even the record plants have halted production of vinyl. I want to be able to play this album live and tour with my band all over the world and I know that time will come. In the meantime, I’m still going to release some singles and be making lots of music for y’all anyway that I possibly can. Until then, take care of yourselves, be good to each other and this weary planet… and watch what you say and who you trust, because we all know… That’s How Rumors Get Started 🔮

xo,

Margo

Price and Ivey recorded the apt Lennon cover, which carries the chorus “Nobody told me there’d be days like these/Strange days indeed,” in their attic where they also recently performed a Tiny Desk (Home) Concert. Watch Margo Price and Jeremy Ivey performing “Nobody Told Me” below:
