The Cadillac Three, Country Fuzz Album Review & Vinyl Giveaway!

The Cadillac Three has officially released their much anticipated new album Country Fuzz, and we’re here for it!

The Nashville country rockers have had us revved up and waiting since Jaren told the Toronto crowd that the record was nearly ready during a show at The Opera House back in September 2018. And now that it’s here (and we’ve been listening on repeat for the last few days to get ready for this post) we’re happy to share all of our thoughts about it.

AND we’re also happy to give you a chance to win a copy of Country Fuzz on vinyl in this post. Use the widget at the end of the review to earn up to eight entries, and you could be a winner. We’ll mail out the prizes when things are wrapped up – and if you win, you’re going to want to turn up the speakers on this one.

Fans of TC3 that have been paying attention and getting ready for this record may already be familiar with Hard Out Here For A Country Boy, Slow Rollin’, All the Makin’s Of A Saturday Night, Crackin’ Cold Ones With The Boys, Back Home, Dirt Road Nights, Heat, and Long After Last Call. For a lot of bands these days, those eight songs would be an entire album, but The Cadillac Three have eight more songs to complete the 47-minute listen.

Off the top, Country Fuzz sets the tone for a good time with Bar Round Here. The same guitars, rhythm, drinks, and smirky smile is there and it rolls right into The Jam at track #2 too. These guys know who they are, they know what they do, and they continue to do it at a high level.

To paraphrase Crackin’ Cold Ones With The Boys… They’ve got big guitars, check. They’re big southern, check. They’ve got that TC3 fuzz that fans continue to love on an album that’s made for them.

This record is also a lot of fun to listen to because we can start to imagine what it’s going to feel like to see the band play it live. At Boots & Hearts 2019 we got Crackin’ Cold Ones With The Boys but that still leaves us with 15 tracks we want to hear live with the ring of the guitars and the beat of the drums with the cheers of the crowd. Our plan, catch them in April when they roll through Toronto (with Oshawa before and Ottawa after) on their 2020 tour.

There are a lot of songs to pick through in trying to point to one that we think you should really crank up and get into. We’ll narrow it down to the eight songs that weren’t pre-released (mostly to make this process easier for us) and try. Even then, it’s tough. So here are two honourable mentions first: Blue El Camino and Jack Daniels’ Heart. And that makes Labels the one that gets the ‘you gotta hear it’ spot. The track bangs, but also has that underdog, outcast, we’re all a little broken but we’re alright vibe. “You can’t judge by its cover til you hear it spinnin’ on the turntable. There’s always more behind the title.”

It’s been (a long) two and a half years since the band released Legacy in August 2017 and we’re glad to have new music from The Cadillac Three here in 2020.

If you like The Cadillac Three, we’re confident that you’ll like this record. Country Fuzz is TC3 to a T.

Ready for the contest? Use the widget to earn up to eight (8) entries for your chance to win. And tell a friend too, because maybe you’ll both win and you can talk to each other about how much you love Country Fuzz on your record player.

Good Luck!

Now, hit play on the Country Fuzz album stream, turn up the volume, and get ready to hit play again when it’s over. Enjoy
