Review
Treaty Oak Revival's "Have A Nice Day," dropped in 2023, is like that comforting cup of joe on a Sunday morning — familiar yet refreshing. This album, spanning 37 minutes across 10 tracks, takes listeners on a ride through the highs and lows of love, life, and everything in between. From upbeat toe-tappers to soul-soothing ballads, it's a well-rounded collection.
The curtain rises with "Stop & Stare" and "In Between," both oozing with infectious melodies that set a vibrant stage. The title track, "Have A Nice Day," stands tall with its catchy chorus and easygoing vibe, making it hard not to hum along. They wrap things up with a final track that leaves you feeling content, like the last sip of a smooth bourbon.
If you dug their 2021 release "No Vacancy," you’ll spot the same musical threads interwoven here. While purists might cling to their earlier sound, "Have A Nice Day" marks a worthy addition to their evolution, keeping the essence but adding a fresh twist.
In sum, "Have A Nice Day" showcases Treaty Oak Revival's knack for spinning country tunes that hit home. It’s a love letter to fans and a welcome mat for new listeners, proving the band's craft is as engaging as ever. - Rex
