On her second night in Nashville she saw Steve Earle perform at the legendary Blue Bird Cafe. Soon after, she called him. "She said, `I want to write with you,' and I said, `A lot of people have told me that,' " Earle said. "But I just sort of got intrigued by the whole idea of a Harvard-educated black woman who wanted to write hillbilly songs, so I called her back."
