The Eli Young Band's brand of blue-collar country music is unmistakably Texan. Formed in the early ‘00s, the group made their first splash with 2008's "Always the Love Songs," a nostalgic, Chesney-esque reverie for campfire sing-alongs and the tunes that make them memorable. Songs like "Even If It Breaks Your Heart" see the band taking those tunes to the stage, recounting their own path to stardom over steady, building drum grooves, while romantic hits like "Crazy Girl" showcase Young's capacity to sound gritty, tough, and vulnerable all at once.
