Steeped in a tradition of American roots music, Levi Lowrey has a gift for understated balladry, but he’s plenty versatile as well. As a former tourmate of the Zac Brown Band, he collaborated with them on long-distance love song “Colder Weather”, which highlights his ability to pen a moving narrative. On Randy Houser’s hymn-like “Along for the Ride”, he expresses his gratitude for just being here, and on his own “Whiskey and Wine”, he brings warmth and sorrow to the story of a one-night stand.
