About

Becky Hobbs' raspy voice suits her New Traditional country music really well. Her band consists of players who seem to keep it real with old-sounding tones under glossy production. The songs here are catchy ditties that tell the life stories of a small-town girl who has loved and lost only to love again. Country music legends such as Emmylou Harris and Glen Campbell have recorded some of Hobbs' songs. Hard-core Beanie Baby collectors and serious fans of Walker, Texas Ranger are sure to find a piece of home in the warm as fresh-baked-apple-pie songs of Becky Hobbs.
