Hayes Carll

Houston
Hayes Carll is an odd mix. Wildly literate, utterly slackerly, impossibly romantic, absolutely a slave to the music, the 35-year-old Texan is completely committed to the truth and unafraid to skewer pomposity, hypocrisy and small-minded thinking. His music expands on his already extreme vintage country, thumping bad road boogie and finds new ways to take on the fate of the nation.
