About "Ad Astra Per Alas Porci" by Hailey Whitters
Hailey Whitters opens her album with a Latin-tongued title that translates to 'To the stars on the wings of a pig.' It's a wry, pedal-steel-dusted wink at ambition, pairing a small-town girl's big dreams with a humble, earthy groove. The tension: soaring desire tethered to the muddy ground of reality.
