Louisiana Country Music LIVE feat. Suzanne Cox

On Louisiana Country Music LIVE, we welcomed Suzanne Cox of the legendary The Cox Family — the Grammy-winning family group from Cotton Valley, Louisiana whose harmonies helped leave a lasting mark on bluegrass, gospel, and American roots music. In this conversation, Suzanne reflects on growing up in North Louisiana, the family's incredible musical journey, their Grammy-winning collaboration with Alison Krauss, their role in the iconic O Brother, Where Art Thou? soundtrack and the "Down From the Mountain" era that introduced their music to a whole new generation. Later in the episode, Suzanne is joined by her son, Nashville artist Brandon Ratcliff, as the two talk about their mother-son musical connection, their collaborative project Mother/Son Volume 1, and what it meant to recently share the stage together at the Grand Ole Opry. 🐊 Check out Louisiana Country Website: https://www.louisianacountrymusic.com/ Instagram:   / louisianacountrymusic   Facebook:   / lacountrymusic   TikTok:   / louisianacountrymusic   👇 Follow Suzanne Cox Instagram:   / suzannecoxmusic   Facebook:   / sratcliff4   📧 Subscribe to our newsletter: https://www.louisianacountrymusic.com... 0:00 - Intro 1:01 - Welcome Suzanne Cox 2:05 - Growing Up in a Musical Family 5:14 - Early Influences 7:24 - Bluegrass Festivals 8:29 - Finding Her Voice on Stage 10:33 - Early Hayrides & Shows 11:33 - Building the Family Harmony 13:40 - Choosing Songs Together 16:49 - Her Role in the Band 18:59 - The Years Before the Break 21:03 - How Alison Krauss Found Them 23:08 - Friendship With Alison Krauss 24:08 - Life on the Road 27:17 - Winning a Grammy 31:30 - O Brother, Where Art Thou? 34:40 - Down From the Mountain 35:41 - The Album That Waited 17 Years 42:06 - Caring for Her Parents 45:20 - Raising a Musician 48:39 - Brandon Ratcliff Joins 50:53 - Making Mother/Son Volume 1 55:01 - Brandon Finding His Sound 59:16 - Social Media & the Business 1:02:26 - Playing the Grand Ole Opry Together 1:04:32 - Where to Follow Suzanne & Brandon #suzannecox #thecoxfamily #louisianacountrymusic
