Americana Highways brings you this premiere of Georgia Dish Boys’ “Good Country Livin’,” the title track from their upcoming release, produced by Berlin Waters, recorded and mixed by Tyler Key (on the porch in Fortsonia, GA) which will be available on July 9th. “Good Country Livin'” is Seth Martin on acoustic guitar and vocals, Olivia Anderson on vocals, wind chime, and the album art, Robert Hibbs on electric guitar, Garrett Hibbs on bass, Eric Zock on drums, with
Tyler Key on pedal steel and Mark Plemmons on piano, organ, and accordion.
Rich with honesty and blunt, raw, powerful vocals, Good Country Livin’ is a flagship representation of the cutting edge of the contemporary Americana genre. Take a listen for a sample of the swashbuckling latest from Georgia Dish Boys.
Meeting, becoming friends, and falling in love with Olivia Anderson has been an indescribable influence on the songwriting. We wrote several of the songs together and she wrote the lyrics to the title track. She was back home in Lookout Mountain and returning home from a distillery with half of her family and other half were in the kitchen trying to separate a couple of fighting dogs and someone got bit. She texted me and said, ‘half of us are drunk and the rest of us are in pain.’ I replied, ‘that’s good country livin.’ About five minutes later she sent me ten verses of lyrics with that line as a chorus. We edited it down, I put the chords on it almost immediately, and it’s never changed. — Seth Martin
