“This sounds and feels like a missing Kenny Loggins smash single! Cool tune. The track is energetic, the melody and main hook are strong, and the lyric is emotional and intimate – I’m still singing the chorus in my head!” – TAXI A/R Executive #175, Los Angeles CA

“Skeeter, Bubba, Cooter! It’s redneck hell! Groove reminds me a little of early Rolling Stones.” – Taxi A/R Executive #117, Los Angeles CA

“This is a great drinking song! I love your approach and the theme. Melody is hooky throughout. Love the line ‘no ropes tied to this tavern’ … what a great visual. I love how you personalize the tavern – good work!” – Taxi A/R Executive #195, Los Angeles CA

“Fun song! Melody and theme are strong throughout. Good sectional contrast and a nice melodic ramp that lets you explode into the chorus! Strong hook, good bridge melody … you took the listener to a new place melodically.” – Taxi A/R Executive #195, Los Angeles CA

“This song shows you have a pretty good feel for traditional country. The style reminds me a bit of traditional country artists like Merle Haggard.” – Taxi A/R Executive #195, Los Angeles CA

“Ken – I kept waiting for you to do yourself in by the last verse! I really like this. It’s kind of a heroic everyman kind of statement that stays just this side of total self-pity.” – Taxi A/R Executive #12, Los Angeles CA

“A pretty good rock sound and vibe, good flow. Melodically has a Bruce Springsteen-esque feel.” – Taxi A/R Executive #97, Los Angeles CA

“The track is Smokin’! The melody has a pop soul feel that reminds me of artists like the Doobie Brothers and Steve Winwood. Classic rock with a soulful feel, expressive! A powerful melody with hook enforced throughout. Great narrative. Great rhythm section.” – Taxi A/R Executive #188, Los Angeles CA

“Solid song. Nice job on the lyrics & concept – the story is engaging. So sorrowful, the emotion certainly touches the listener.” – Taxi A/R Executive #178, Los Angeles CA
