Honkytonkville

Texas barroom elegance. Polished production meets the grit of the honky-tonk, anchored by a baritone that feels like home.

June 10, 2003 · MCA Nashville

A seasoned, slightly weary collection of stories that finds beauty in the familiar patterns of heartbreak and faith.

Moments Worth Listening For
The sharp, rhythmic fiddle double-stops that kick off the title track, immediately setting a dancehall pace.
The transition from the gritty narrative of the jailhouse floor to the soaring, sincere spiritual chorus.
The way the pedal steel mimics a sigh during the quietest verses of Desperately.
