Musician, UNC grad Tift Merritt Comes Home To Raleigh With A ‘Stitch Of The World’
Posted Feb 18, 2017
Tift Merritt is back home in Raleigh. After spending years in New York City, the North Carolina native took the advice of friends—including Hiss Golden Messenger's M.C. Taylor—and headed south to have her first baby and see what her hometown had to offer. Before making the move, Merritt managed to record a new album called Stitch Of The World.
