The Grammy-nominated vocalist performed three tracks off her album No One Gets Out Alive
Maggie Rose performed a trio of songs off her Grammy-nominated album No One Gets Out Alive during her debut appearance on CBS Saturday Morning.
The Maryland native and Nashville lifer sang the devastating indictment of two-faced friends, “Fake Flowers,” a lilting “Under the Sun,” and the title track, a declaration to live a life uninhibited. “Buy the house, visit Rome/Wear the dress that stops the show,” she sang to open “No One Gets Out Alive.”
Released in April, No One Gets Out Alive cemented Rose’s expert pivot to rootsy Americana vocalist, after years spent in the wilderness of mainstream country. “It was a really dark time. When I wrote a lot of these songs, I had relationships that were long lasting that just could not sustain the pandemic,” she told Rolling Stone in July. “There were relationships that were friendships that also had a work component that, once it was removed, it just became too tenuous.”
No One Gets Out Alive secured Rose her first-ever Grammy nomination. She’ll compete for Best Americana Album at the 2025 Grammys, set for Feb. 2 in Los Angeles. “I am completely overwhelmed with gratitude and don’t quite have the words yet, but thank you,” she wrote in part on Instagram after the nominations were announced. “Thank you, most of all, for supporting this music and giving it life.”
No One Gets Out Alive ranked Number 72 on Rolling Stone’s list of the 100 Best Albums of 2024, and Number 10 on RS’s Best Country and Americana albums of the year.
