Jesse Daniel (from the album Countin’ the Miles available on Lightning Rod Records) (by Bryant Liggett)
Jesse Daniel makes Country music. Not Alt-Country or New Country, but Country of the classic vein. Storytelling of rural living, heart, home, and the highway, keying into the life and all things human. Countin’ the Miles may have a 2024 date but this could be 1964 or 1974, a record with a vibe that’s part outlaw, part Bakersfield, and just enough twang and rock to make it appealing for the most elite and/or Roots Country fans.
“That’s My Kind of Country”, where Jesse Daniel sings of rural American living like ‘shooting guns and catching big ol’ rainbow trout’, would pack a sawdust covered dance floor. The title track road song for Countin’ the Miles is your score for blasting down the highway, a ripper where the pedal steel lives just behind the guitar lead and vocals. “Ol’ Montana” is a heavy, kill your ex’s current lover, murder ballad, “Restless” is a nod to the past of old rowdy friends and a good bar with a better jukebox while pining for a steady homelife, and “Lonesome Blues” is a cowpunk ripper. “Tomorrows Good Old Days” is a cut that looks for the better life of the past with simpler living, something people may agree on coming from the left or the right, and the closer in “Cut Me Loose” is another ripper with that late 70’s, country groove.
This is a record also loaded with quotable memories; ‘Good and bad things that you do will end up at your door/ from “Comin’ Apart at the Seams” and ‘just because you plant the seed doesn’t mean your garden grows’ are gems. A stacked band with every instrument needed for your Country Rock band, memorable lyrics and hook heavy Country is a great recipe for a keeper.  (by Bryant Liggett)
