On We Should Write Episode 4, Lindsay Lawler welcomes another friend and one of the most eccentric, authentic artists Nashville calls their own. You may know her from her duet with Keith Urban, her time on The Apprentice (yes, with Luke Bryan), or her jaw-dropping run to the finals on America’s Got Talent. But those are just the bullet points.

The truth is, Emily West isn’t playing anyone, she is the character. A little Liza, a little Judy, a lot of heart. She’s a Nashville veteran who’s fought hard to be seen, to be heard, and to create the kind of magic that only she can. And in this episode, she's talking honestly about how writing has saved her life, what it’s like navigating mental health in an industry that doesn’t always make room for real emotion (or women), and why she continues to show up, sing, and sparkle. 

Don’t miss her sitting down with Lindsay to tell the truth behind lines like "I won't go on stage, lit up on amphetamines, singing ripped off melodies, while I fall apart. I'm a one woman show, and I wasn't made for the radio."
