The veteran singer and songwriter of
country music known as Michael Hall has released his country music
single, “My Country Family.” The track has been proudly published
as an American independent release entirely without support from the
corporate music industry. Raw, natural and full of the warm, classic
overtones of traditional country-western music, “My Country Family”
is a ballad of the American heartland that people all over the world
can appreciate.
Michael Hall has cited as main artistic
influences some of the very best-loved heroes of country music. Given
in his own order, these include Merle Haggard, Johnny Cash, Waylon
Jennings, Elvis Presley, and “many more.” His sound incorporates
several key attributes of these, perhaps most importantly including
Hall's rich and bold singing timbre, the strength of which carries
the song and would sound powerful and moving even if heard
unaccompanied.
Hall's singing is backed by his own
accomplished guitar playing, some beautiful slide, a strong bass
line, elegant piano, and a little percussion for good measure, and
these elements round out “My Country Family” for some of the best
country music to be published in decades. Fans of Willie Nelson,
Dolly Parton, and other such classic players from before the country
genre became watered-down by rock-'n'-roll crossover projects are
sure to be well pleased with this offering late in 2014 from Michael
Hall.
It bears noting, also, that the themes
expressed in “My Country Family” are perfectly suited to the
holiday season, just weeks away from the single's official release
date. Speaking of his themes in the track, Hall writes simply that
they are centered around “Gratitude and blessings.”
Michael Hall was born and raised in the
country in South Carolina. He has worked in farming, ranching,
automotive work and music. He has been a trucker, bull rider, drag
racer, paint-and-body man, barn builder and a cowboy.
“But with all that experience,” he
writes, “singing and songwriting have always been my passion.”
Hall has played all over the American
Southeast in honky-tonks, nightclubs and churches, at festivals,
private parties, and weddings.
“I've shared the stage with some of
the greats,” Hall says, “and I'm looking forward to presenting my
music in a meaningful and strong way.”
“My Country Family” by Michael Hall
