Lydia Cash peels back the layers of her own life to share rich, evocative Americana-inspired rock music
'I kind of love that mix of excitement and fear, like on a roller coaster,' says Lydia Cash. Those warring emotions permeate Cash's latest body of work, including the singles 'We Can Never Go Back' and 'A Whole Summer of Loving You,' which were both released earlier this year. Confident and lyrically naked, Cash (yes, of that Cash family) peels back the layers of her own life — including the end of an eight-year relationship and marriage — to share rich, evocative Americana-inspired rock music. New and old fans can hear her latest tracks during a solo set at the Empty Bottle on May 23. 'I grew up knowing that I'm related to Johnny Cash, but it actually took me a really long time to realize the impact this man had,' Cash said about the famed country musician, her distant relative. 'I grew up thinking that he was a cousin who picked up a guitar sometimes. I didn't understand the weight of that until high school.' Yet despite the family connection, music performance was not modeled to Cash during her childhood. Having grown up in a conservative home in a small town outside of Birmingham, Alabama, writing and performance were things she discovered on her own. 'Music is something that I've always naturally felt drawn to for as long as I can remember,' she said. By age 9, Cash was writing lyrics in a Lisa Frank notebook. During high school, she began singing in church. But it was college that proved to be a major turning point for the musician. There, she made friends with artists and writers around the Auburn, Alabama, music scene who inspired her to take performing seriously. So she did. In 2013, Cash moved to Chicago to pursue music and visual art. 'It opened up my entire world,' she said about the city. 'It's honestly the best decision I've ever made, moving here.' Yet music didn't always come naturally. Cash focused on visual art, her other talent, becoming a full-time painter by 2016. The pandemic, like for many musicians, became a turning point. Cash and her then-husband moved to Nashville. 'I wanted to do the full thing. I wanted to tour. I wanted to play the big shows,' she recalled. The city, rich with songwriters pursuing country music, pushed her forward. 'Everyone's good there, so I really started digging in,' Cash added. But after two years of Nashville's competitive, sometimes 'pay-to-play' atmosphere, Cash came back to Chicago. Surprisingly, it was here where she connected to the local country music scene filled with musicians, fans and two-steppers. This found family filled with encouraging friends and collaborators has now made the music creation process easy and fulfilling for Cash. 'It's just the best, most humbling feeling in the world that my friends want to play my songs with me and share that experience with me,' she said. 'I think I just got addicted.' And creating has been a healing, transformative experience for Cash. While going through her separation, Cash found music — not visual art — to be her strongest creative outlet. 'Writing songs was almost all I could do,' she said. 'It's all I wanted to do.' Most of Cash's songs are a reflection of things happening to her in real time. 'Blush,' a sweet EP she released last summer, focused on the ups and downs — the intimacies — of new romance. Raw and vulnerable, Cash leans into her openness rather than shy away from it. 'I know that we all need more empathy. We all need more connection, and that's really the only goal at the end of the day,' she offered. 'To write a song that someone else is going to relate to in some way and feel that it's genuine.' But her latest batch of music signals a new direction in Cash's life and musical direction. The single 'Joshua Tree,' released earlier this month, takes on a more structurally assailing tone. Grungy yet melodic, the track is about wanting to start over and feeling frustrated with your current situation. Inspired by a trip last year to the desert California city, Cash called it a 'symbolic trip' and the beginning of a new, unpredictable single life. 'I think part of that trip was learning to lean into my friendships and let people in. It was exhilarating,' she recalled. That spirit will permeate Cash's upcoming record, titled 'Violet,' which is slated for release this fall. Filled with a mix of angry and restorative songs spun through ripping electric guitar solos, Cash said this new record is a reflection of everywhere she's been these last few years, and this invigorating, musically-rich state of her life. 'I truly just write when I feel like I've got something to say, or when the ideas are flowing, which I feel lucky about,' Cash began. 'Because lately, there's been a lot.'

Goodwill Drops a Cowboy Carter-Inspired Collection Ahead of Beyonce's ATL Show
Beyoncé is slated to bring her 'Cowboy Carter' tour to Atlanta in two months, and local Goodwill locations are helping thrift-loving fans and concertgoers look the part. Goodwill of North Georgia, a division of the international thrift store chain, launched a limited-time capsule collection last Friday dubbed 'Cowboy Goodwill' to align with the artistic and conceptual themes of the megastar's current musical chapter, according to a Goodwill press release. The western and Americana-inspired selection has attracted savvy shoppers assembling giddy-up getups — not unlike the unofficial dress code large swathes of attendees have sported at Cowboy Carter tour stops around the country. Pieces layered with rhinestones, studs, denim, fringes, and faux leather are selling quickly from the collection, which is only available in store. Capital B Atlanta spotted Goodwill employee Devin Breaker on Monday dressing a limbless mannequin in a denim top with cutoff jean shorts and a fringe belt. He said the response to 'Cowboy Goodwill' has been great, as he has noticed shoppers seeking out and buying items from the collection and capturing their finds via photos and videos. 'I'm amazed on how cute this stuff is,' wrote TikTok user @foreverzoria, who shot a clip showing several pieces from the collection. Breaker, the assistant manager at the discount store located on Piedmont Road, is rushing to meet demand. 'I've been restocking for the last two days,' he said. 'I'm down to two more boxes, so once I put that on the floor, I'm more than confident that we're not gonna have anymore.' 'Cowboy Goodwill' does not include the Levi jeans Beyoncé sings about on her Cowboy Carter album, nor will you find the Houston native's name on any product packaging or labels, as this is not an official collaboration. A representative for Beyoncé's record label, Parkwood Entertainment, did not respond to Capital B Atlanta's request for comment on the collection. The 'Cowboy Goodwill' collection features Stetson hats that are often associated with cowboy culture. The brimmed headwear is adorned with fringes, rhinestones, and/or reflectors that resemble a disco ball. Additionally, there are black and white fringe belts, and a tinsel jacket and vest. Pieces in the collection range in price from $12.99 to $34.99. 'Cowboy Carter under a budget,' wrote @leotravels2 in a TikTok caption. While the bulk of Goodwill's inventory features previously owned items donated for resale, 'Cowboy Goodwill' is made up of new items. 'I like the collection because it's transitional,' Breaker said. 'You can pair it up with a lot.' Participating Goodwill of North Georgia locations include Buckhead, Decatur, Fayetteville, Metropolitan Parkway, Morrow, Northside, Piedmont, and Snellville. The Beyhive still has time to let Goodwill upgrade their wild-wild-west wear before Beyoncé hits the stage. The Cowboy Carter tour, which kicked off last month in Los Angeles, is scheduled to mosey on down to Atlanta's Mercedes-Benz Stadium for four dates: July 10, 11, 13, and 14.

Amid U.S. Uncertainty, Adidas Turns Focus Elsewhere
Updated 1:20 p.m. ET April 29 Given uncertainty in the U.S. market, Adidas may have to try and make more of its money elsewhere, chief executive officer Bjørn Gulden said during an online press conference reporting first-quarter results Tuesday morning in Germany. More from WWD Devin Booker and Nike Collaborate With Chevrolet on Americana-inspired Collection Jeremy Scott's Long-distance Design Relationship With Berlin's $14 Million Theatrical Revue Under Armour's New Courtside Collection Bridges Performance and Style Despite market uncertainty and global tariff turmoil, Adidas reported organic growth of 12.7 percent in the first quarter to 6.15 billion euros. The sportswear giant's operating profit also grew significantly, rising 81.7 percent to 610 million euros. 'It has been a very good quarter and I'm very proud of what the teams around the world achieved,' Gulden said. 'As you know it's not been an easy quarter when it comes to external factors.' The company, which produces hardly any product at all inside the U.S., had already taken various measures to try to compensate for the impact of on-again, off-again tariffs by the Trump administration. Over the past seven years or so, both Adidas and competitor Nike have been steadily moving production out of China and into countries like Vietnam. Adidas now makes around 40 percent of its footwear there. The U.S. government is leveling tariffs of up to 145 percent on Chinese-made goods but also recently targeted Vietnam with higher tariffs, before dropping them back to 10 percent. In response, Gulden said Adidas had tried to clear as much product through U.S. customs as possible before tariffs were imposed and had rerouted products made in China to other markets or left them in the Chinese market itself. As yet, Adidas hasn't raised prices in the U.S. nor has it seen any shortages or any adverse reactions from American consumers, company executives noted. In fact, any Adidas products that might be impacted by tariffs — even the reduced 10 percent tariffs currently on Vietnam — have yet to land in North America. 'Nothing is visible yet,' Gulden explained. Some products will land in the second quarter and might have a slight effect on Adidas' margins, but it won't be until the last half of the year that tariffs really hit, he said. At that stage, Adidas will be watching consumer reactions closely and respond accordingly. 'We've flagged the uncertainty going forward,' Gulden explained. 'We have about 20 percent of our business in the U.S. — so important for us, is also that we focus on the other 80 percent which you can see we have momentum in. The whole organization is focusing on more of the other markets, making sure that we continue with our momentum and that we maybe get even more growth out of them than we currently have.' In fact, it is even a somewhat 'ironic' advantage that Adidas isn't as exposed to the U.S. market as others, Gulden said, likely a veiled reference to Nike, which manufactures abroad but sells around 40 percent of its products at home. In the first quarter, European revenues rose 14 percent. In Greater China and in Japan and South Korea — Adidas now tallies the two latter countries together — the brand saw growth of 12.7 percent and 12.8 percent, respectively. Emerging markets and Latin America rose 23.4 percent and 26.2 percent, respectively. In North America, sales grew 2.8 percent. But Adidas executives noted their first-quarter tallies no longer included any of the previously very profitable Yeezy products, the result of a now-canceled collaboration with the controversial rapper formerly known as Kanye West. When Yeezy sales were excluded from that calculation, North American sales would actually have increased 13 percent between January and March. In all other territories, Adidas' sales growth was one to two percentage points higher in the first quarter, when Yeezy products were taken out of the comparatives. In the first quarter last year, Yeezy goods brought in around 150 million euros and Adidas executives emphasized the group's growth without Yeezy reflected the current strength of the brand. A trend for so-called 'terrace' shoes has helped Adidas climb out of the financial hole caused by cancelling the Yeezy line. Some market analysts have pondered how long Adidas' good fortune with the 'terrace' trend can last. 'Many of you question if this is not dangerous…in the sense that things can slow down,' Gulden conceded. 'But I can tell you that the heat in these different franchises is being kept — by updating them with different materials, doing limited editions, and then extending the franchises, depending on the heat in different markets. We are not afraid of this,' he declared. The so-called 'low-profile' trend is also benefiting Adidas, with one collaborator, Puerto Rican musician Bad Bunny, popularizing a kind of gender-bending, ballerina-meets-sneaker look, he said. 'And if you want an insider tip, anything with animal print is flying off the shelves,' Gulden added, laughing. Adidas is also placing bigger bets on 'lifestyle' running shoes, including a 3D-printed sneaker to be released shortly and the Adizero Evo SL, an affordable version of a much pricier shoe designed for professional athletes. The latter 'was meant as a training, running shoe,' Gulden explained. 'But because of the design, the weight, the comfort and yes, because of the look, it has become a major lifestyle shoe.' Adidas reiterated its guidance for the full year, first issued earlier in March. However, because of 'external volatility and macroeconomic risks,' the range of possible outcomes had to be widened, the company said in a statement. Adidas now expects sales to grow at a high-single-digit level in 2025 and for its operating profit to fall somewhere between 1.7 billion and 1.8 billion euros.
