Our Take
Our Take
Ah, Hayes Carll, the Texan troubadour with a mischievous twinkle in his eye and a penchant for spinning yarns that stick in your mind like a cowboy boot stuck in the mud. His latest offering, "What It Is," is a delightful romp through Americana-tinged storytelling and foot-stomping melodies that will have you humming along in no time.
From the opening track, "None'ya," Carll sets the tone with his distinctive drawl and sly wit, weaving tales of love, loss, and the complexities of modern life with a laid-back charm that is impossible to resist. Tracks like "Times Like These" and "Beautiful Thing" showcase Carll's songwriting prowess, with lyrics that are equal parts heartfelt and hilarious.
But it's not all introspection and heartache on "What It Is." Carll knows how to let loose too, as evidenced by the rollicking "Things You Don't Wanna Know" and the raucous "I Will Stay." These tracks will have you tapping your toes and reaching for another cold one, lost in the joy and chaos of Carll's musical world.
Overall, "What It Is" is a triumph for Hayes Carll, a reminder of why he is one of the most beloved figures in Americana music today. So pour yourself a whiskey, kick back, and let the tales of Hayes Carll wash over you like a warm Texas breeze. You won't regret it.
