Singer/songwriter Lindi Ortega may hail from Toronto, Canada, but a quick listen to her music will tell you she found her spiritual home in Nashville. She’s been named Roots Artist of the Year the past two years by the Canadian Country Music Association, and the reception down in Tennessee has been just as warm.

Ortega visited the new Paste Studio in New York during CMJ to play three tracks from her brand 2015 album, Faded Glory, as well as a rollicking cover of Janis Joplin’s “Mercedes Benz.” Watch “I Ain’t the Girl” in the player above, and check out:
