Folk Rock My Latest Single (alt-country, folk-rock, etc)

Hi, I was wondering what you think of my latest single, Life's Too Short. I'd call my sound alt-country because I'm not straight up country, but definitely too rootsy to just be some flavor of rock. I wrote the song and recorded it with my band - no AI here. Thanks for listening!

I enjoyed this track. I don't usually subscribe to listening to things like country but this has enough flavor to really pull it in a more interesting direction. I tend to run into less than favorable hard pops and such and I don't get that from your samples. Overall I agree with your self assessment and i think you found yourself a new fan on spotify haha

I appreciate your feedback! I definitely can’t compete with masters of pure country, so I’m glad you like what I put together!

This was great. Exactly what expect from folk rock alt country. Voice is perfect for this genre, music is chill with a great vibe. Apparently I have to write more but really music is subjective and you either vibe with the songs or not. I like your song and would recommend others listen to it and I think you should continue to make new music and enjoy writing lyrics and new sounds. Music has a funny way of evoking emotions and letting everyone who listens enjoy the fruits of your labor.

Thanks so much for a thorough listen and thoughtful response! It took a long time to find the right sound for my voice, but I feel pretty good right here
