The Wyoming-born, Nashville-based musician Luke Bell appreciates the simple things in life. "I like work, cowboy culture, just plain good songs, honky-tonks, real life people, my dog, and my 95 Buick," says Bell. A fifth-generation descendant of Wyoming homesteaders, the ranch hand turned troubadour has seen a lot of life in his 26 years on this mortal coil and is preparing the release of his second LP. Listen to the downright righteous tune below.
The Fader premiered "Sometimes," the first song to be released from the new album, and said "his music sounds like you could have heard it in the same honky tonk Hank Williams used to play (with the exception of a little profanity)."
Download the track for free via Bandcamp: https://lukebell.bandcamp.com/releases "I wrote this song a few years ago about the mixed feelings a person has when they leave something behind before they've decided whether it's the right thing to do or not," says Bell about the song. "At the time I was living down in Texas and havin a ball of a time with good friends at places like The Hole in the Wall, The Broken Spoke and The White Horse, but grew restless and hit the road. I had it half written and sang it in the studio just foolin around- the band thought it was a blast to jam on so I finished it and we cut it in just a few takes if I remember right. It's a straight forward Bakersfield style Honky-Tonk-punk-rock-two-steppin-long-legged thoroughbred; nothin fancy, just fun." Luke Bell will release a new album later this year and will appear at the Stagecoach Festival on Saturday, April 30th. Tour dates to be announced. www.lukebellmusic.com www.twitter.com/lukebellmusic www.facebook.com/lukebellofficialmusic www.soundcloud.com/luke-bell-music
