Release Notes:
--------
Eric Church has always been excellent at balancing whiskey-charged toughness
with open-hearted musical subtlety: His first great hit was 2011's
"Springsteen," a masterwork of literary detail and melodic texture, and 2014's
The Outsiders nailed a 21st-century country-rock sweet spot. So it's no big
shock to hear him big-upping Wilco's Jeff Tweedy (and even nicking one of his
tunes) on this album, where he cleverly juggles genres and often leans on his
somber singer-songwriter side. Recorded in about a month and surprise-released
to fans, it's full of casual stunners: "Mixed Drinks About Feelings" is a
closing-time piano duet with Susan Tedeschi; "Chattanooga Lucy" sees Church
working a soul falsetto over a stomping dance groove; and the backing track for
"Kill A Word" is like a twang-born kissing cousin of early-Eighties Fleetwood
Mac.
Church's well-observed writing and warm, generous wit ground the album,
particularly on two examples of the small-town vignettes he does so well: The
title track, which builds from acoustic reverie to barnburner as he empathizes
Buzz," which enters the term "lit up like that one stoplight" into the canon of
go-nowhere drunk-dude one-liners. The most moving moment, "Record Year," is
Church at his ecumenical best. It's a sweet, sad ode to post-breakup boozing
next to a turntable that has Waylon, Willie and Stevie Wonder's Songs in the Key
of Life in its stack of vinyl Band-Aids. Tweedy should be happy to be included
in such fine company.
