The country singer/songwriter with an easy-listening yet poignant track
Welcome to Taste Test, a song/video review series of SubmitHub-only gemstones
With Mac Greer, straightforward is best. “Won’t you say it to my face/heard you’re with another man/from up the road” Greer laments, his voice cracking with emotion. The instruments are easy on the ears, with the bass line swaying to and fro like reeds in the wind. The simple guitar chords and sparingly-used harmonica evoking a easy-listening country rock timbre. “You ever get tired of people beating around the bush? Say It To My Face is my story and my plea for people to tell the bitter truth” Greer explains. The production and mix is spectacular, creating an even tapestry of instruments that seamlessly weave in and out of focus, showcasing Greer’s gritty vocals. This is the perfect song for a road trip, a bar song, or just to leave on repeat for some easy listening.
