I’ve been listening to country music for over 40 years. This young man is the real deal. This is how country music is supposed to sound. He needs a record deal ASAP. He has his dad’s voice with a subtle uniqueness. Love hearing him sing the Hags songs and would love to hear his originals. Keep it coming.
