BBC Talks with Emmylou Harris, "The Voice of an Angel," About Forthcoming Album

Emmylou Harris appeared on the latest episode of The Ticket, the arts and entertainment program from the BBC World Service, last Saturday, to discuss her storied career, her recent induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame, and her forthcoming album, All I Intended to Be, due out June 10.

The show's host, Mark Coles, introduces Emmylou in the opening segment as possessing "the voice of an angel, not a grievous bone in her body," referencing the seminal Gram Parsons album Grievous Angel, on which she famously duets with Parsons. In the interview, Emmylou credits Parsons with helping her find her true voice and opening her to "the real beauty and finesse and poetry in country music," which ultimately set her on her musical path.

There's much more from on The Ticket from Emmylou, whose segment opens the show. You can listen now at bbc.co.uk.
