All tagged Flatland Cavalry Album Review
Imagine yourself, after a hard day, reclining by a bonfire with the one you love, wrapped in a blanket. The night is crisp and the sky is filled with stars. Taking in all of God’s natural beauty… This is the best way that I can describe Flatland Cavalry’s new EP Songs To Keep You Warm. It is all that, in sonic form. The overall effect of the album is low key, but not to be confused with lacking in depth or content.
Unlike their previous releases the band went with a slower paced, acoustic sound. One that carries this theme well. Cleto says of the new EP that
Many bands & artists spent 2020 wondering if they were going to survive and what they were going to do next. That was not Flatland Cavalry. It appears that they spent 2020 getting more comfortable in their own skin and more confident in who they were as individuals, as artists, and as a band. And nowhere is this more apparent than in their new album, “Welcome to Countryland." This album not only has them doubling (some might even say tripling) down on the sound that has made them a leader not only in Texas country, but in the more traditional country music stylings as well. But in that vein of confidence, they have stepped out of their comfort zone to write and record songs that depart from their very recognizable style. And this new confidence looks good on them.
