I can generally count on one hand the number of (modern) country music artists I enjoy. You've got Garth Brooks, the Chicks (formerly Dixie), Trace Adkins, Kacey Musgraves, and I guess my pinky finger can now be used to signify an affinity for Ella Langley's jams. I was listening to a radio station that plays various genres of popular music, and I heard, "Choosin' Texas." I was about to change the dial due to not being big on country, but...I liked it! Give it a listen:
Yes, "Choosin' Texas," is the first single off of Langley's second LP, and it is really catchy. The tune basically is about how Langley has a man who seems to like her, but now he's apparently finding himself attracted to a woman from Texas. There are lots of metaphors about cowboys, and it is peppy in its sound, but it has a clear tinge of sadness about everything going on. I really dig it and will be exploring Langley's discography further now!
