Like many singer-songwriters, Scout Willis comes from a family of music lovers.
There was always music playing in our house, the singer-songwriter tells Bustle.
My sisters and I would do performances of The Coasters songs at dinner parties for my parents friends.
But in just about every other way, Willis upbringing was far from typical.
Her Coasters-loving dad and Patsy Cline superfan mom?
Thatd beBruce WillisandDemi Moore.
[Music] has helped me to look at that pattern.
The 31-year-olds debut album, the self-titledScout LaRue Willis, recounts her years-long journey toward self-love.
Some songs I wrote in an hour, she says.
Its not just her mind thats at peace.
Nothing illustrates this better than her music video for Woman at Best.
The juice dribbles down her chin: sweet satisfaction.
