GET TO KNOW HAYES CARLL.
Hayes Carll writes with a combination of dry humour, empathy and the sense that a good line should reveal something about the person saying it. His Texas Gulf Coast apprenticeship gave him both a stage education and a cast of characters. Trouble in Mind, KMAG YOYO and later albums move between unruly social observation and quieter self-examination without losing the conversational voice at the centre.
Country, folk and blues support an understated vocal that gives the words room. A wry line can turn into a more painful observation without a dramatic change in delivery.
