Style: Country
Montana country artist Corey Stapleton’s polished productions showcase his solid-as-a-rock values about life and love. Delivered in a sometimes boyish tenor voice, tunes such as “Western Son” are inspirational songs about harmony, togetherness and perseverence. “Make This Work” is a downtempo love ballad (“But your mom, were she here, would say to make this work) whose earnest lyrics might veer too close to cheesiness, is helped by a polished band, particularly the guitarist who’s nice and precise. Stapleton and Co. let their hair down just a bit on the politely brash-sounding rocker “My First Rodeo.Not” (great title) includes bango and organ licks and is the least corny of his songs.
