Our Take

Let's dive into the latest offering from Americana troubadour Rayland Baxter, "Wide Awake." This album is like a musical hot potato, bouncing from genre to genre with wild abandon. One minute you're in a honky-tonk bar, the next you're at a psychedelic beach party.

Baxter's songwriting is as sharp as ever, tackling themes of love, loss, and existential dread with a wit and charm that can only come from years of honing his craft. The lyrics are a tapestry of vivid imagery and clever wordplay, drawing you in and refusing to let go.

The production on "Wide Awake" is a kaleidoscope of sounds, with lush strings, funky basslines, and soaring harmonies creating a sonic landscape that is both familiar and utterly unique. It's like taking a trip through Baxter's musical brain, with each track offering a new surprise around every corner.

Standout tracks include the soulful "Strange American Dream" and the infectious "79 Shiny Revolvers," which will have you tapping your feet and singing along in no time. Overall, "Wide Awake" is a triumph of creativity and musicality, showcasing Baxter's talent as a songwriter and musician. So, grab your headphones and get ready to dance, because this album is one wild ride you won't want to miss.
