For nearly a decade, going back to her debut album _Half Way Home_, singer-songwriter Angel Olsen's music has lived a life of dusty solitude and expansive introspection, finding meaning
in lonely blue skies. "I've always been kind of an emo kid," Olsen says in an interview with _All Things Considered_. "I've always been obsessed over dark and
light, and things that pass. Sometimes you can change so much." On her new album, titled _Big Time_ and released today, those thematic preoccupations became strikingly literal; ahead of
recording it, Olsen suffered the loss of both of her parents in quick succession, just shortly after finding love and coming out to them. That swell of experiences drew Olsen,
understandably, to the silhouette of country music. She spoke to NPR about the process of recording it against that bittersweet backdrop, collaborating with her partner (begrudgingly, at
first) and learning to ignore the gulf between generations – in favor of love. _To hear this conversation, use the audio player at the top of this page._ Copyright 2022 NPR. To see more,
