Singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer, Van Plating, is gearing up to release her third album this Friday, September 15th.
Coming from a family background that’s deeply rooted in bluegrass, Van Plating spent her free time playing pickers circles. For this album, she's delving into her love for 1990s country music.. describing it as 'lush,' & reminiscent of her childhood landscape. The album is a tapestry of fiddles, pedal steel, electric guitars, Nashville twang, and more guitars.
Van Plating's music surpasses genre boundaries, blending elements of pop, rock, and a healthy dose of Floridian Americana/country – a genre she affectionately calls “Orange Blossom Country,” hence the album's title, Orange Blossom Child.
Growing up in Florida has deeply influenced Van’s music, drawing from the legacies of shining stars like Gram Parsons, Gamble Rogers, and Tom Petty. It's also a place with rich history, from the indigenous Seminole people to early Spanish settlers and pioneers. These elements became clear inspirations once Plating tapped into them.
