Tracy Lawrence

A definitive 1991 debut of neotraditional country. Warm pedal steel, a signature nasal twang, and songs built for jukeboxes and long highway stretches.

Moments Worth Listening For
The way the pedal steel weeps into the opening of Today's Lonely Fool, setting a high-water mark for 90s heartbreak.
The rhythmic bounce of Runnin' Behind where the fiddle and electric guitar trade playful, syncopated licks.
The sudden, stark intimacy of the vocal delivery on the bridge of Somebody Paints the Wall.
