Clay Walker came crashing out of the gate in 1993 with his country No. 1 debut single, “What’s It to You”, sporting titanically twangy guitars, hooks as big as all outdoors, and a big, warm voice with a touch of fellow Texan George Strait’s down-home charm. Decades later, even with updates to his production, his down-to-the-bone Lone Star charisma carries through loud and clear on tunes like 2020’s feel-good anthem “Need a Bar Sometimes”, the country-music equivalent of a bear hug from your best friend who also happens to have a tall cool brew waiting for you.
