​Clover County (from the album Finer Thing

​Clover County (from the album Finer Things available on Undercover Lover Records/Thirty Tigers) (by Danny McCloskey)

The description that Clover County gives her music in online profiles is ‘bootgazey’. It’s a perfect explanation of music that is equal parts Country and Rock’n’Roll played out with an Indie Americana backing. Her recent release, Finer Things, weighs the passage of time on the slowly revolving rhythms of “Blue Suede Eyes” as “Angels” flies on an airy dreamscape of piano-led sounds over a sturdy backbeat. The songs of Finer Things showcase the singer/songwriter tunes of 24-year-old Clover County; her relaxed voice backed by a slowly-rising Folk Rock for “Anywhere” while her siren vocal sways on a cruising groove in “Cadillac” and admits to being ‘a junkie for love’, sharing that it’s been a ‘long time since I’ve known love that wasn’t war’ over a heartbeat rhythm with “Virginia Slim”. Clover County strums bless-your-heart into “Good Game”, warns of “Stranger Danger” over a scratchy guitar growl and paints a backdrop of ‘black and white and sepia tones’ for “Yours Too” while Finer Things tells stories of the “Black Crow” as it whispers a late-night noir tale in “Whiskey Cherry” and drives a New Wave highway down “Paradise Rd.”.
