I realized that a lot of the songs that I’ve been creating are seasonally or event themed (i.e. Fall, Winter, Thanksgiving, Valentines, etc…) which severely limits the playability of these song year round. So, I got to thinking about making a more generic country song.
Someone once told me that the quintessential Country and Western song was “My girl left me, my truck broke, and my dog died” I figured I’d see if I could make myself a classic country tune, in the style of ole’ time country, called “Country Blues” and yes in the song the girl leaves, the truck breaks, and the dog runs away.
Having made Country Blues, I got thinking that it really wasn’t fair leaving our cowboy all emotionally torn up like that, so I made a second tune in more modern country shuffle style called “No More Country Blues” where our cowboy finds his dog and a new cowgirl to keep him company.
I combined these songs into a two-song album called Country Blues Suite now available on all the streaming sites including iTunes/Apple Music, Spotify, YouTube Music, Amazon Music, etc…
