COUNTRY WESTERN KNUCKLEN

Nashville indie rockers Country Westerns capture restlessness on 'Knucklen', an expansive production that teases their forthcoming sophomore full-length, Forgive The City, which is expected to deliver up a tighter, more intense take on theirs signature striking rock. Led by echoing six string guitars and a steadily building pace, the punchy production which opens the LP delves into themes of enduring partnerships and resilience as it takes us on the indie rockers' journey through the claustrophobia of lockdown and the renewed sense of freedom that comes from being on the road again. Produced by Matt Sweeney, the atmospheric number turns the anticipation for the album up to fever pitch. -Malvika Padin
