Positive Comments: Wow! This is just a fantastic tune. Right off the bat this is reminiscent of Cody Jinks, maybe Jamey Johnson. Just good solid writing, and a memorable melody. Excellent recording and instrumentation. GREAT voice! I’d throw this on my red dirt/alt country playlist immediately alongside Reckless Kelly and Cory Morrow and Stoney Larue. Great stuff, man.
Constructive Comments: I don’t know that I have a whole lot constructively. The only real things that I noticed had to do with the melody. The ends of your verses feel like they want to go up instead of down melodically. It feels a little disconnected from the chorus, I want to hear it build up in to the chorus…it feels a little too final and resolved, and doesn’t leave you waiting for the chorus. I would say on “lawyers papers to file” go up with your melody and build intensity into your hook. otherwise…so good.
