It's early morning, and the fog is laden and heavy, clinging desperately to the ground, to the brown fields, to the skeleton orchards that I'm gunning past. The air outside is cold enough to snap a twig. Inside, the stereo is fighting a war against the silence, pumping out a track called "Box Wine" by a Nashville-based singer named Rae Cole. It's the right kind of music for driving in the country. It isn't safe music. It makes you want to just keep driving out and into the horizon without looking back, to find the edge of the map and drive right off it. To reach your hand out into a future that doesn't exist yet and squeeze it until it becomes real. This is my routine drive most mornings, but I've been keeping Rae's music in the chamber more than others lately. I keep coming back to her small but addictive catalog. There is a specific frequency in her voice--a mixture of Southern California sun-bleached optimism and the gravelly, hard-won wisdom of someone who has seen the dream die and decided to wake up and build a new one anyway. It reminds me of something Lester Bangs might have muttered through a haze of cough syrup: the only true currency in rock and roll is the ability to stand naked in front of a crowd and bleed. Rae Cole is bleeding in 4/4 time, and it sounds fantastic. She sings, "One day I'm waking up and I'll tell myself, it was worth the walk through hell." My nine-year-old daughter, sitting in the back seat, sings along. She knows the words. She doesn't know about the hell yet, but she will. We all do. I called Rae on a Saturday at noon. She was in Nashville, nursing the exhaustion of living through November. I was in Oregon, nursing the specific exhaustion of a father who had taken his kids to a concert the night before. We started talking about the things you talk about when the pleasantries die--the wreckage, the music, and the road. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68cdc905ece6b41b2d64249f/8709adb2-2950-4487-bebf-1dde6b7aaaab/Rae_4.jpg STORIES - Battery Acid Romantic: Driving Into the Fog with Rae Cole The Future Road Rae is staying put in Nashville and building another dream from the ground up, navigating the muddy waters of being a solo female artist in a town built on the backs of them. She has a clutch of songs that are ready to go. She’s planning shows. She’s working on building a band, but this time, she's the leader. "I've never led a band by myself before," she said. "I'm not gonna lie, I'm nervous as hell about that." But she's doing it. Because the alternative is silence. The alternative is to let fear take the wheel. Instead, she's waiting for the next wave to crash so she can ride it. If you see a girl with blue hair playing a dulcimer like it's a weapon and a life preserver, buy her a drink. Just don't ask her for a shot if you're feeling sad. She's seen enough of that. Ask her about Turkey. Ask her about the commune. Ask her about the music. And then listen. Because in a world of noise, Rae Cole is a signal worth hearing. https://www.killyourdarling.com/stories/marielle-kraft-wants-you-to-know-that-the-right-people-will-love-you monthly 0.5 2025-10-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68cdc905ece6b41b2d64249f/341f57f4-e2e4-4fd9-9536-a0b3bf606d8f/MarielleKraft-Holocene-Portland%2COregon-October11th%2C2025%2845%29.png STORIES - Marielle Kraft Wants You to Know That the Right People Will Love You - Make it stand out It’s a campfire serenade with Marielle Kraft https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68cdc905ece6b41b2d64249f/d3fd0d5a-b2a8-41d3-b16f-a6cd7b5f97cf/MarielleKraft-Holocene-Portland%2COregon-October11th%2C2025%2860%29.png STORIES - Marielle Kraft Wants You to Know That the Right People Will Love You - Make it stand out Marielle talked to every.
