At the start of 2019, Lukcy Charms AKA My Fellow Travelhers, set off with just over $1000 in her pocket and the intention to spend a week in every state of the US. Not only that, but she planned to find a local musician in every state and create a unique piece of music together. What resulted, as you’ll hear, was a trip that spanned almost a year, covered thousands of miles, created several great tracks that she’s now in the process of re-recording in the studio, and many enduring friendships. I’m interested Lukcy’s experience for several reasons: how she travelled so far on so little money, how interacting with local musicians changed her sense of the place, and what great destinations in the US people often forget.
