#16 | Maren Morris | Humble Quest
Columbia Nashville

From beginning to end, Humble Quest is her most thoroughly rewarding artistic statement to date, with her many lyrical charms damn near perfectly calibrated with the superb soundscapes that propel the album forward.

Whether through strokes of serendipity or sheer determination or most likely a combination of the two, a select few artists do manage to finally break through and reap the rewards that Nashville has to offer each year, validating the twists and turns they traversed to get there. With her artistic integrity and, yes, humility firmly intact, Maren Morris’ still-unraveling story represents an inspiring blueprint for this phenomenon. And Humble Quest affirms that even with three major-label albums to her credit now, she’s still simply scratching the surface of what promises to be a remarkable career.
