Heather Myles indulges in the real meat and marrow of what country is all about. “In The Wind” is the latest signpost on the trail of her exceptional career, nodding towards the modern currents of country while maintaining a good grip on the reins of the past.
“In The Wind” is a fun, beautiful, sometimes haunting collection of songs that Heather has been inspired to write, and a few covers close to her heart. It is a warm, revealing look at her life so far and where she is headed next, demonstrating a maturity honed by years on the road, in the studio, and in the company of greatness. - Her duet with Willie, “Don’t Call Me”, is richly spiced by Skip Edwards’ south-of-the-bor der accordion, while gems like “Broke And Broken Hearted” plant her boots firmly in the dusty, smoke-filled honky-tonk tradition.
You can crack open a tall one and scoot boots along with “Smokin’” and the red-hot boogie of “My Baby’s Good To Me”. “Right Or Wrong” and the classic “Vaya Con Dios” conjure up the spirits of Patsy and Loretta, while “Pretty Poison” and the bittersweet, mandolin-driven “In the Wind” offer up a more contemporary take on country.
The title song, and the whole album, take a creative look at what is really the heart and soul of country music: the hope and perseverance that come along with hardship and heartache. This is True Country. The complete cd or individual tracks available for download at www.buckatune.net
