The title says it all: The “Hurtin’ (On The Bottle)” B-side was originally written while Margo Price and her backing band, The Pricetags, played low-paying bar gigs and slept on floors. With a highly anticipated new album just a week away, the country singer ain’t hurtin’, but from the stage at our SXSW showcase she assured us, “I’ll be desperate and depressed until I die.”
