Dave Cobb Production (same Nashville guy who produces Jason Isbel, Stapleton, et.al.)

this is Psyc Country - uses those sort of corn pone Country music tricks but is not stupid like so much Nashville pop country stuff. In fact it’s absolutely great. Nominated for Grammys etc when it came out but I didn’t become aware of it til later. (Familiar story...) For modern production it’s pretty amazing to me. Sounds like the 70s. SQ excellent besides. Highly recommended.
