View The Digital Edition of the March/April 2017 Issue, Featuring Dwight Yoakam

The March/April issue of American Songwriter is now available for digital download.

Our cover story features Los Angeles country maverick Dwight Yoakam, who reflects on the Appalachian roots that inspired his new bluegrass album Swimmin’ Pools, Movie Stars. He also shares his thoughts on the rise in popularity of Americana as a genre and considers his own legacy in the larger narrative of country music.

We also spend time with Rhiannon Giddens, whose latest album Freedom Highway is both an artistic achievement and a political statement for the Carolina Chocolate Drops founding member. Tift Merritt discusses the years of living and writing that led to her confessional new album, Stitch of the World. And we consider the current plight of songwriters attempting to survive in the digital age, in both an exploration of copyright in the Trump era and a dispatch from the front lines of the battle for sustainable streaming royalties.
