USA TODAY colleague Emily Brown fills in for Mary this week. She tells the story of how a car accident set her on a path to musical discovery. (Don't worry, she's OK; actually, better than OK with new music.)

'Tuesdays With Mary' (temporarily 'Tuesdays Without Mary' while Mary Nahorniak is on maternity leave) is a weekly feature of Dad Rock, a music podcast from USA TODAY hosted by Patrick Foster and Jim Lenahan.
