The people we meet in life play an integral role in our songwriting. They often inspire us, and sometimes find their way into our songs as characters. These story songs are able to explain ideas much bigger than ourselves and allow us unique platforms to express our ideas. This song liberally utilizes poetic licensing. The song is an exaggeration of a woman who partakes in sins of the flesh. However, we are not convinced of our fictitious Frieda’s damnation and applaud her for her bravery to do what has to be done as a woman in this big ole goofy world.

Sierra Ferrell's music is the nectar that drips from vocal chords of angels on ecstacy and percocet, dripping with honey, and smelling of grandma's brownies. It has been proven to "cure what ails ya", and it temporarily wards off the existential dread that is slowly encompassing us all. Don't let the absurdity of our existence get you down. Listen to Sierra Ferrell instead.

I have listened to bluegrass and old-timey style banjo music for many years. Nora Brown has the most poetic interpretation of these styles that I have heard so far. She is the John Fahey of banjo (but also with striking vocals). brit_b
