Modern Baseball: Heartbreak in the Digital Age (ft. Jonah Birenbaum)

After garnering attention from her debut 'Same Trailer Different Park', the small-town-Texan continued her observationalist approach to song writing with Pageant Material. It was certainly a new challenge for both Blake and Jake, as the album leans country and it isn't exactly the 2000s emo we're all used to, but there are a lot of familiar connections to be found when digging around Kacey's upbringing, her mid-teen fashion choices and even her musical inspirations.
