In her transformation from train-hopping vagabond to viral sensation, Sierra Ferrell has honed her spellbinding style of storytelling in trailer parks, dive bars, truck stops and everywhere in between. In a new profile that aired on CBS Mornings, she opens up about the remarkable path it has taken to now becoming "one of country and roots music's most fascinating and fastest-rising artists" (Rolling Stone). As correspondent Anthony Mason shows, "the only thing more amazing than her voice is her story."

Watch the full piece from CBS Mornings, where she discusses growing up in West Virginia, hitchhiking, running wild and busking on street corners, seeing the other side, landing in Nashville and coming into her own.

Trail of Flowers marks Sierra Ferrell's first new album since 2021's Long Time Coming, and since then she has become one of the moment's most in-demand musicians. She has collaborated with Zach Bryan, Diplo, Margo Price, Shakey Graves and The Black Keys, been covered by Kelly Clarkson, and shared stages with Dave Matthews, Lana Del Rey and Nathaniel Rateliff. She earned Emerging Artist of The Year at the 2022 Americana Honors & Awards, sold out all her live shows in 2023, and is reaching far greater heights in 2024.

Leading up to Trail of Flowers, she made her national TV debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, and sold out two nights at Nashville's historic Ryman Auditorium. She returns to the road with two sold-out shows at LA's Fonda Theatre this week, followed by more of her biggest headline performances to date, and a series of stadiums, amphitheaters and arenas she is about to play with Zach Bryan, The Avett Brothers and Mitski.
