Check out these country classics from Waxahatchee, Julia Pratt and more!
1. “Anybody But You” – Tyler Halverson
Starting us off is “Anybody But You” by Tyler Halverson. Halverson serenades his lover with the kind of affection any girl would swoon over, with his velvety vocals and cowboy swagger. He enchants listeners with his earnest lyrics that perfectly encompass the country spirit.
2. “Boys” – Cereus Bright
The self-described Freak-Folk artist Cereus Bright mystifies with his psychedelic-country performance of “Boys.” The title track of his latest EP release is a standout, featuring a coffee-shop vibe instrumental with a surrealistic music video showcasing the singer’s inner turmoil expressed through audio. Countering the video, the song is warm and inviting, with an authentic undertone.
3. “365” – Waxahatchee
Following the release of recently released album Tigers Blood, Waxahatchee drops visuals for single, “365.” With a skillfully done one-shot music video, Waxahatchee wails in a hypnotic ode about the addictive nature of personal relationships, and whether it’s wiser to stay or go. It’s a phenomenal vocal performance, accompanied only by a leisurely guitar to support the serenity of her voice.
4. “Knowing U Exist” – Medium Build
Gracing us with a live performance of song “Knowing U Exist,” Medium Build releases a simple music video of him strumming to the song in the Alaskan snow. It’s a heartwarming song to counter the wintery backdrop, him singing of his dedication to a lover despite all the bad times that may occur. It’s a euphoric tune, leaving a calm to overtake you and a fuzzy feeling inside.
5. “Carolina” – Julia Pratt
Last but certainly not least, we have “Carolina” by the immensely talented Julia Pratt. This soulful ballad showcases Pratt’s vocals and raw emotional depth, delivering a stirring performance that will leave you speechless. The song details the grief of no longer recognizing a place you once called home, and Pratt covers this haunting feeling beautifully.
