​Will Hoge (from the album Tiny Little Movies available on Edlo Records)
Songs are arguably small films, and Will Hoge naming his recent release, Tiny Little Movies, fits both his detail-staged storylines and powerful character-led tales. For a category, file Tiny Little Movies in the drama section. The richness of his backstory and protagonist lead actor’s ability to fully embrace the emotional tsunami in the song presents the tales of Will Hoge in full-color on the big screen. The action is live as Will Hoge pulls into the “Midway Motel” while the picked notes quiet to hear the tough love growl advice in “Even the River Runs Out of This Town” as a hammered beat marks time in mistakes for “That’s How You Lose Her” and Tiny Little Movies tries to find the right words to unlock the mysteries of “The Curse”.
 
Where Will Hoge stands in the real world of 2020 is mirrored in Tiny Little Movies as the songwriter turns the spotlight on himself, questioning how long he needs to hold on to a rebellious streak in “Maybe This is OK” and measuring today to the fears of yesterday with “The Likes of You” as he uses experience to write the rear-view wisdom of “Is This All You Wanted Me For”. Backing the words of Will Hoge is a Rock’n’Roll bite, the music soundtracking Tiny Little Movies and offering got-your-back support for the stories. Stuttering electric guitar chords light a match for the propulsive thrust of “The Overthrow” as a pounding rhythm lays the groundwork for the spit and snarl of “Con Man Blues” while Wil Hoge saddles up “All the Pretty Horses” for a theatrical ending as the track heads Tiny Little Movies into the sunset.
