Single Review: Scotty McCreery, "Water Tower Town"

April 7, 2012 Ben Foster 22

Reviewing mainstream country singles can be mighty depressing these days. It often seems like we’re hearing the same song over and over again. Conversely, I often feel as if I’m writing the same review over and over again.

So how can I find a fresh angle from which to approach this new Scotty McCreery single?

Single Review: Kix Brooks featuring Joe Walsh, “New to This Town”

April 5, 2012 Dan Milliken 2

I’ve always liked Kix as a singer, so I was happy to see that this single exists. He’s got one of those modest-but-charming Everyman voices, the kind that makes every song feel like a conversation with your ol’ pal.

He also sounds positively thrilled to flex it for us again, which is just infectious. Listen to how he relishes every note of “New to This Town,” like he doesn’t want waste a moment of this reintroduction. Love that! I love that.
