On this episode, Lauren is joined by the wonderful American singer-songwriter Elizabeth Moen. A self-taught guitarist, Elizabeth wrote her first songs while a student at the University of Iowa and, since 2016, has released multiple songs including her 2018 album ‘A Million Miles Away’. 

In November 2022, Elizabeth self-released her wonderful album ‘Wherever You Aren’t'. Talking about the record, she describes how these songs are about mental health, joy, panic attacks, falling in love, falling out of it, and accepting that sometimes it will stay with you forever.

As evidenced across all her catalogue, Elizabeth Moen can bend any genre to her unique mix of sorrow, hope, and endurance. Her commitment to this album, to her career, and to continually showing up, affirms Moen’s raw and honed ability to see the truth, face it, and send it back into the world as a beautiful song.

Lauren was delighted to chat with Elizabeth at the beginning of 2023. Together they discuss each song off the album and the many personal and cultural influences around it.

Today, we reminisce about our February 17th, 2022 show, when we had the pleasure of hanging out with the incredible and kind, Elizabeth Moen. In between the tunes, we talked with Elizabeth all about her music- from the influence of living with her Aunt, to how the past two years have affected her musically, and about everything upcoming!

During this episode, we were sipping back with a glass of creami-licious Butter Chardonnay.  So grab a glass, sip back and get ready to JaM out and wind down. Cause this is JaMHappyHour, poured by JaM Cellars.
