"Topaz" is an album by American musician Israel Nash, released on March 12, 2021, via Loose Music, Desert Folklore Music, and Soundly Music. The album, recorded in Nash's Plum Creek Sound studio in Texas, was first announced in December 2020, alongside the release of lead single "Canyonheart" and today's tune "Down In The Country".
“Down In the Country” is political. Nash explains in an interview with American Songwriter, “With devastated towns, family farms, the shuttering of factories, there is a real burden that unfortunately makes many vulnerable to the empty promises of those motivated purely by political and economic gains. This is a song about the people. Great things happen when we get the truth. We come together and we act on it. We really are all in this together. Remember that – now, more than ever.” Inspired in part by the 2019 documentary series No One Saw A Thing and his own upbringing in small-town Missouri, “Down In the Country” tackles the rural American perspective.
Today's tune "Down In The Country" is a sultry blues with some really soulful brass arrangements and it's filmed Live from Plum Creek Sound, enjoy!
