    Taking a page from the George Strait playbook, country music newcomer Easton Corbin displays excellent song sense while offering an easygoing vocal style on his finely crafted self-titled debut album.

    Dig deeper for gems like "This Far From Memphis" (as in "I didn't know the blues ever got"), then sit back and remember why you fell in love with country music in the first place.
  3. Slant Magazine

    The album recalls the series of interchangeable, filler-packed albums Strait recorded in the mid '90s. Corbin sings well enough, but lacks the maturity and depth of experience to elevate some of the record's middling material.

    The first time I heard "A Little More Country Than That" on the radio, I knew I had to check this guy out because he resembles the voice of King George. I ended buying the whole album. Although sounding similar to George Strait does get him points, Easton can stand in his own as a spectacular artist. His songs are beautifully and masterfully crafted and each and every one makes me feel something. The vocals, instruments, and composition of the album give me hope that country music is not all becoming poppy crap.… Expand
