Single Review – ‘Wax Paper Cups’ – Walker Hayes

14 years ago Liv Carter Comments Off on Single Review – ‘Wax Paper Cups’ – Walker Hayes

Alabama native Walker Hayes came to Nashville armed with a college degree in music and soon found himself noticed for his unique style. So far in 2010, he finished recording his debut album and was offered a spot on the Country Throwdown Tour.

With new single ‘Wax Paper Cups’, Walker really offers something remarkably refreshing. The lovely, mellow little tune describes one of those laid-back summer evenings spent comfortably in the presence of the one you love. The catchy melody is underscored by near-ethereal acoustic guitar and Walker’s unique vocals, with just the right amount of vulnerability, really carry this simple, Del Amitri-esque song. Listening to this will make you want to grab your other half, jump in the car, and spend an evening just like this.  

‘Wax Paper Cups’ is an exercise in ‘less is more’ and is an exciting calling card for the upcoming debut album.
