Brian Shuck, a Texas native who was born in California, has been actively performing in the Southern music scene. With influences of Johnny Cash and similarities of Garth Brooks, his music brings a smile to Nashville music lovers. His latest single, "Southbound Summertime", brings a joyful vibe as he speaks about the good times in his country town.
When I first heard the lyrics to this song, it reminded me of friends I use to have in my early 20's. We happily would hang out at the county parks and talk about good times in high school. Brian shares detail about having the windows down, relaxing on a lawn chair, and enjoying the day like an American should. The instrumentation of the song is well mixed and I love the way how his voice blended with the music.
Another thing I love about the song was the vibrant video showing the young people enjoying their time in the summer weather. Who wouldn't want to spend their time in a drop top convertible cruising down the highway with the people they love. Visions from the hammock on a beach with blue water makes this song even more colorful.

If I had to rate this track on the scale of 1 to 10, the score will be a 8 for its energy, its conveying message, the positive vibes and well put together lyrics. Check out his video below and let us know what you think.
