A perfect fit for Friday traffic, lake docks, and office windows.

Billy Currington rolls out “Pretty Good At Drinkin’ Beer” like a grin.
Country radio could use that balance right now.
The single feels like a fresh and rowdy hit right now: sturdy.
Production stays clean and but the track still feels dusty.
The vocal sits front and center, rough-edged but easygoing.
The mix keeps the honky-tonk twang front and center.
Jello Biafra and Mojo Nixon turn Are You Drinkin'.
Guitars snap cleanly and the rhythm section stays punchy.
The track fits a hot evening, an open tailgate, or a last call.
Wynonie Harris barrels in with Don't Take My Whiskey Away from Me.
My favorite Indie Rock songs from the past year.
Small percussion ticks and washed-out chords give it.
Star Slinger drops “Mornin'” like a sunbeam with headphones.
The song sounds instantly essential, the kind of thing.
With the weather wobbling and the afternoons getting longer.
Vocals stay cool and clipped while the chorus lifts on a clean.
