Lonnie Spiker: That’s When The Crazy Kicks In
Click on photo for full review
Country music is losing its once-traditional edge, which is sad but true to these ears. For proof, turn on the radio. I'm reaching for "off" because of the bland, washed-out ballad, half-sparked rocker, and the arrival of clones and copy-cats.
But with a credo of “real country music the way you loved it” salvation is riding hard to radio stations and programmers who prize authenticity over simplistic high-rotation.
To fuel the momentum, while working on a new album, Spiker has released a single – “That’s When the Crazy Kicks In”.
