Another Online Discovery

Hey everybody I'm back after a hiatus here with another blog post. Today's post is about an artist I once again stumbled across online who I think many of you will like if you have not heard of him. His name is Jake McVey.

Jake McVey is an interesting story because he gave up his lucrative guitar building business in order to chase his dream of becoming a professional musician. I must say that was a wise choice because McVey is very talented. His sound definitely fits that mold of today's country music sound.

After listening to McVey's music for a little while I was very impressed with not only the musicality but the song quality. Many of the songs that McVey plays are capable of being hits in my opinion. And although his music may not be innovative it is very catchy. I feel like I am listening to country music being sung by a southern rocker from the 70's who just got back from church. There is definitely a gospel feel to his music and that just makes for catchy material.

I am going to go out and say that this is another artist who will breakthrough soon into the country music scene. The guy has catchy music and a great sound that will carry him a long way in my opinion.

Until next time keep on rocking away music lovers,
