https://soundcloud.com/torrey-bliss/a-brighter-day-countryThis is a country version (a genre I usually don't play but love)of a more upbeat song I posted quite a while back. I really felt it would work well with a country style. I hope it lifts someone's spirit.

Hi Torrey,
You have a very nice, professional sound. It's strong pop-country song. Your mix is excellent as is the vocal. Love the chord arrangement on the chorus. Thanks for a great listen! Best to you,

Hello, Torrey
Very catchy song as always.
Vocal and lead guitar are great and pleasant.
And a unique chord progression is your character.
As if I am listening to the country song written by Paul McCartney.
Very enjoyable listen.
Best regards.

I like this song. The chord progression is unique. It reminded me how songs used to be written.
My only nit with this is the treatment you chose for the vocals. Sounds like a phase shifter or maybe a doubler that's too high, on the vocals. I'd rather hear a more natural voice with just some verb.... that would be more intimate. You have a good voice, no need to hide behind FX.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Sounds great!
Can't pin down just where or when but I heard a little
touch of Dan Fogelberg in there who wrote and sang
beautiful songs. Very nice melody
Enjoyed

Torrey,
This does work just fine in a country style and I enjoyed the song in both versions- wish I could write melodies that sound so original!
Maybe that great guitar intro on the earlier version just shades it for me between the two.

Excellent feel, right from the first note.
I particularly like some of the chord changes, they provided unusual but masterful anticipation.
This is quite exceptional, complete with excellent vocals throughout.

This does work as a country song quite well. I enjoyed this version but prefer the earlier version a bit better. Likely just because I've played that one more than a few times and have become accustomed to it.
The mix and production are really nice.
This has a feel of a Sonny James song to me.
