Welcome to the "Bramily!" Today’s Bubbles & Books Podcast episode is a celebration of the one and only Brandi Carlile. Inspired by Ellyn's request to  pop a bottle of Brandi’s own XOBC Cellars Sparkling Wine. Brandi isn’t just a once-in-a-generation talent, she’s also one of the truly good ones, and always has been. Right now we could all use a little more light and inspiration, so we’re diving into the essential Brandi Carlile — pairing her songs with books Ellyn thinks match their spirit and soul. Let’s raise a glass and get into it.
