Elkins addresses a familiar set of country tropes from criticizing the phoniness of the music establishment (“Nashville Money”) to male and female stereotypes (“Mr. Breadwinner”, “Good Time Girl”) to how hard it is to get by (“Old Trauma”, “Machine”) without ever getting too deep intellectually. He and his guitar are more interested in expressing emotions than offering lessons on how to live. In a world of know-it-alls, it’s refreshing to hear someone get down and dirty. Elkins lets his guitar do most of the talking, and that’s a good thing to hear.
