Samantha Crain recently released her new album. It's an album she didn’t think she would ever going to make.

Following three car accidents in 2017, Crain was left with debilitating injuries to her hands. She had to cancel her entire U.S. tour and suffered from depression and anxiety as a result. That period is reflected in the album's title, A Small Death.

Crain talks about what it was like going through that period, the eventual making of this album, and her continued efforts to write music in the Choctaw language.
