The Cumberland River Project’s latest single comes with sweet music, a hearty story, passionate singing, and some solid night-out recommendations in the Nashville area.
A country music project masterminded by German musician and songwriter Frank Renfordt. Renfords is the songwriter on the project. He also plays guitar and bass, mixes and produces, and even sings, from time to time. On ‘On A Nashville Night’ Renfordt features the boomy and fluid voice of singer Mason Douglas, as well as Dave Demay on production duty at Songcity Studio, also in Nashville, Tennessee, while the project itself is based in Hagen, Germany.
A song that retells a story of a crazy night out in Nashville, it also recommends a particular location if you’re looking for a fun night out in the city. Namely The Honky Tonks on Lower Broadway, the song remembers a late night of many drinks, a struggle to locate his hotel room, and a raging bender the morning after. Who wouldn’t want a part of that! Musically, the song’s instrumental warmth is embracing, with its consistent beats and rational, walking pace tempo. The richly layered guitars have tasty overdriven tones, and the singing timbre’s is boomy and charismatic.
A song that’s fun to listen to, telling a story that’s fun to imagine. There’s no doubt writing this song was such a sweet challenge to the man who lived through that wild night, and its shows in the song’s lightheartedness and grown up class.
