Ron Pope – Mama Drove A Mustang out October 11th

Ron Pope says – This is the first single off my upcoming album….

which you’ll hear more about very soon! 

My mom was born in 1964, the same year the Ford Mustang came growling into this world. When she was a newly minted divorcee at 25, there was only one vehicle that she could imagine herself in; the problem was, she had two kids and that tiny sports car was a wildly impractical ride for our nascent family. In spite of the reasonable objections that sensible people around her registered, when I was six and my brother was just two, she went out and saddled herself a white 1989 wild horse, the coolest car she’d ever own by a country-mile. That car was something of a metaphor for my upbringing; there was lots of shit we probably shouldn’t have done, but my parents were kids too, figuring it all out as they careened through their twenties occasionally bumping into the proverbial guardrails, so we often just went ahead and made the mistake, took our lumps and kept on rolling.
