Over the course of ten solo albums, countless tours, and some high-profile collaborations, Laura Veirs has built a loyal audience and garnered the respect of critics and peers alike. Still, as the mother of two young boys, she struggles to juggle her responsibilities to her family and the demands of her art. This struggle led Laura on a quest to see how other musician mothers navigate through life and to document their stories for this podcast series, Midnight Lightning. Laura talks to her co-producer, Joe Wong, about her own story and she attempts to answer many of the same questions she poses to her guests. Topics include: partnership, parenthood, musicianship, fear and love. Stay tuned for Season One of Midnight Lightning, premiering January 3, 2018 with legendary bass player Carol Kaye.
