Career

Good Woman is listed at number 19 on Rolling Stone's "40 Best Country and Americana Albums of 2017".[7] The album is featured on BrooklynVegan's list titled "Five Overlooked Albums of 2017".[8]

Mancari's second solo album, The Greatest Part, was released on June 26, 2020.

Their third solo album, Left Hand, was released on August 25, 2023. It was produced by Becca Mancari and Juan Solorzano to critical acclaim. "in a whispery, unthreatening voice that somehow isn’t overwhelmed by a brawny beat, a forthright string section or Brittany Howard’s vocal harmonies. “Don’t even worry” also sounds like “doing the work”; it’s a personal promise that’s underlined in the mix."
