I posted about this guy on the Isbell thread earlier in the week, but his first full studio album just came out and it's pretty great.
I get the feeling he'll be one of the next big Americana guys to come down the pipe.

Impressive as singer/songwriter Drayton Farley's first two albums were-both stripped down to just acoustic guitar and his emotional voice this one with a full band introduces him as an Americana artist whose time has arrived.
Produced by Sadler Vaden, longtime guitarist in Jason Isbell's 400 Unit and a respected solo artist in his own right (also fresh off a production hit with Morgan Wade), it comes as little surprise that Farley's vocals and overall musical approach have a remarkable, occasionally uncanny, resemblance to those of Isbell.
Regardless, Farley's artfully composed, descriptive, often brooding lyrics, engaging, fresh-faced vocals, and effortlessly melodic tunes display a talented artist ready to take his career to the next level.
My new album, ‘Twenty on High’ will release everywhere on March 3rd!
