For those of us who are obsessed with bubble water, the same water in a different delivery is different. It totally changes the character of the bubbles, like how long it stays fizzy, like all of that stuff changes.  --BettySoo, Texas songwriter who loves Tehuacan Tamarindo mineral water Traveling as a musician means going places and experiencing a lot of things at once. Texas-based BettySoo and Sloane Spencer discuss what it means to travel on the road, tamarind candy and its uniqueness, plus BettySoo’s favorite carbonated beverage, Tehuacan Tamarindo, which derives from her love of tamarind candy. There's kind of a unique cultural phenomenon to the Austin residency, and I think part of it, honestly, is that we have so many venues. Beyond a shared love for carbonated water, they talk about the Austin music scene and what makes it special to be a musician there, how hard it is to get even nonalcoholic drinks shipped across state lines, and beloved Jewish deli sodas. I love the connection like that, something that seems so simple as a flavored bubble water, is part of that whole experience. List of links BettySoo.com Nobody's Girl (feat.

AI Transcript, Good for a Few Laughs Sloane Spencer: [00:00:08] Hey, y'all, this is Sloane Spencer, and you found us here at Bubble Bottles, one of our two new podcasts. This is where we chat with music folks about their favorite carbonated beverages. I've got a special guest with me today, somebody who I have been following -- literally following -- at shows around the country for several years now and have actually gotten to catch several times. And I guess the plus and the minus of the pandemic is that BettySoo has done a pretty cool online event that bubbled up during all of this experience as well. But it is a Texas songwriter involved in a lot of different projects, not only her solo career but also her trio Nobody's Girl who has a new album coming, by the way. I'm sure we'll talk about some of that and happens to be a designer of planners, so I am obsessed with planners and full disclosure: I purchased the planner and I use it regularly, so I know that's not really what we were planning to talk about, but I felt like I should put that out there. So BettySoo, welcome to Bubble Bottles. [00:01:07][59.1] BettySoo: [00:01:08] Thank you so much. It's great to be here. [00:01:10][1.8] Sloane Spencer: [00:01:11] Oh my pleasure. So give us a rundown on what you've been doing musically. [00:01:15][3.9] BettySoo: [00:01:15] Well, you know, Nobody's Girl. We released our record a year after we thought we were going to release it because we had planned to go on a big tour in 2020, like so many other people. And of course, that didn't happen. In fact, our 2021 plans got kind of kiboshed by the Delta Surge and everything. But but we still got to do our CD release and, you know, got to celebrate it in some cool ways. So that's kind of been the focus for the last few years. I've got some cool projects coming up for 2022 and beyond. I'm talking about making a solo record with Will Sexton maybe doing a duets record with Michael Fracasso and touring again. So lots of cool stuff to come. [00:01:57][41.5]
