Well I'll Be Damned, Chris Shiflett Is Pretty Good At This Country Thing

You can imagine how excited I get when I hear of a rock, pop, or other genre artist decide they want to dabble in country music. Sure, every now and then you get some cool surprises like Don Henley, but more than once we've been disappointed by others such as Steven Tyler and especially Bret Michaels.

So when I heard that Chris Shiflett (guitarist for the Foo Fighters) had a new country song out, I was skeptical. But I'll be damned, not only is Chris' new song pretty damn great, he's also dabbled in country before to exceptional degrees. You learn something new every day!

Chris released his first solo country album in 2010 titled, Chris Shiflett & The Dead Peasants as well as a collection of honky-tonk covers in 2013 with All Hat and No Cattle. Quite frankly I'm surprised I'm just hearing about this now.
