EADY, JASON - Jason Eady (Sealed) (CD)

Based in Ft. Worth, Eady has always gravitated toward a country sound that favors old-school Texas twang over modern Nashville polish. He memorably skewered the genre's mainstream heroes in 2012's "AM Country Heaven," calling out Music Row bros and belles for being "too damn clean and polished like stones." "Waiting to Shine" isn't quite as explicit, but it does find Eady and producer Kevin Welch whipping up a sound that's more reminiscent of a back-porch picking party that a downtown honky-tonk show. Arriving on April 20th, the new album Jason Eady offers up 10 songs of crooner country and roadhouse roots-rock
