I love a rodeo song. I've written a few cowboy/rodeo songs in my time.... It's a hard life on the rodeo circuit. One of my favorite rodeo singers was Moe Bandy.... if you're not familiar with him, look him up on YouTube. Nice mellow song. ALSO: Foster & Lloyd https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEBgRF1hkDA

You're good at this stuff. I think you could do a little cut slide etc. with the harmony vocal on the 5th line but, otherwise, it's a cool thing.

Another good one Brad... I may be wrong... But your lyrics & lead vocal are so intimate & strong on this number, That I believe they would do well without the background harmonies. Still I enjoyed listening to your rodeo song... And I agree with Herb... Your song brought memories of Moe Bandy's rodeo songs.

I like this one a lot - the melancholy lyrics, your vocals, the instruments. Good stuff.
But... there's a glitch at the start of a lot of all your phrases. For example, at 0:30 on "with", 0:53 on "ain't", 0:59 on "maybe", 1:04 "or", 1:27 on "and", etc.
I suspect that you've edited vocal takes together, and because you've cut the "fade in" of the vocal, the vocal volume goes from zero to instantly "on". Or perhaps you're doing punch-ins that start a bit late, so they lose the natural fade in.
In any event, you're probably got an option in your DAW to add a small fade in on the vocal that'll get rid of that problem.
None of which is to diminish the song. You do country really well, and I always enjoy listening to your songs.

Nice work Loved the flow of the song and thought your vocals were seriously on point. A good write overall - strong progressions and I like how it swings upwards for the chorus. It's nicely catchy without sounding overbearing. Thanks for sharing!
Cheers, Deryk

Very easy on the ears. It's one I'd listen to again.
My music may not set the world on fire but if it causes a glow in just one person's heart, it has all been worthwhile
