Chicago Americana artist Sara Jean Stevens just released a new video for the song “Thaw,” with a new EP, “Lovesick,” to follow on Valentine’s Day. To mark the occasion, she jumped on the podcast to do an absolutely stunning version of the song before our interview.

See Sara in one of her upcoming shows:
12/14 – Fitzgerald’s (Them Coulee Boys)
12/26 – Martyrs (with the Hoyle Brothers)
1/14/25 – SPACE

We met outside Cantina 52 in Crystal Lake (cantina52.com). Thanks to owner Jimmy for his kind hospitality and delicious food. Sara and I both ordered off the vegan menu (so many choices!), and loved what we had. If you’re watching the video, you can see what we ate. I’m ready to go back … meet you there?
