The Late Nite Music Club is proud to welcome folk/country legend Nanci Griffith this coming Thursday, May 21st at 4pm Pacific/7pm Eastern for a live chat. She'll be taking questions about her 30+ year career and her new album The Loving Kind, which comes out June 9th on Rounder Records.

The album, Griffith's most politically outspoken record in years, if not ever, is named for Richard and Mildred Loving, the plaintiffs in Loving v. Virginia, the 1967 civil rights case which finally ended the ban on interracial marriages once and for all. Mrs. Loving issued a statement before her death last year expressing her hope that soon, same-sex couples would follow in her and her late husband's footsteps to victory in their battle for marriage equality.

Music Club O.G. Howie Klein will be moderating the chat. He put together this clip for 'Across America' from The Loving Kind.
