The EP delivers a fresh take on contemporary country, blending traditional sounds with a modern twist. There’s something about the way that Barnes sings that speaks to influences from Britpop in a way, an Oasis twinge perhaps. The absolute standout track is the closer here; ‘Still Believe In Crazy Love’ captures Barnes’ ability to create a country anthem, mixed with a power ballad, the track is a tribute to remaining faithful to the idea of love. The guitar embellishments add the perfect amount of distance between the chorus and verses, the slow, steady drums create that anthemic feel and the harmonies (particularly in the bridge) are absolutely perfect, just before that classic guitar solo drops to bring us back to the pre-chorus, just in time for another air-grab.
