Essential Albums
- Rowdy, throwback country tunes with a little edge and a lot of fiddle, Jon Pardi’s sophomore album is a bid to bring the genre back to its tough and twangy roots. After hitting a string of wild Texas dance halls, the California native was determined to capture the boisterous energy of a live show without resigning to EDM trends. So he recorded with a seven-piece band that included a fiddle, hand claps, a tambourine, and a steel guitar to give each song extra punch. “Dirt on My Boots”, a howling ode to letting loose, was designed to lure listeners off their stools and onto the floor. “Might have a little dirt on my boots", he sings, "but we’re gonna dance the dust right off them tonight”.

About Jon Pardi
“When we talked about making this record,” Jon Pardi told Apple Music about 2019’s Heartache Medication, “one of my favourite jokes was, ‘Well, we all listen to old country and drink beer. Why can’t we make a new album we can drink beer to that sounds like old country?’” That, in a nutshell, is Pardi’s vibe. Born in 1985, the California songwriter sings tunes that would sound worn-in on the jukebox at any honky-tonk. Thanks in part to the song selection on his family’s karaoke machine, Pardi is inspired by the hooky radio hits of ‘80s and ‘90s country as well as the genre’s traditional sounds. While bro-country was eating up the airwaves in the early 2010s, Pardi established himself with the old-school punch and twang of 2013’s “Up All Night”, which became his first big single and helped him gain momentum with his throwback sound. Even when he skews toward country-pop—as he does on the dance floor-ready 2016 single “Dirt on My Boots”—he doesn’t spare the fiddle and banjo. With Heartache Medication, Pardi delivered his most pedal steel-saturated offering to date, packed with tales of lonesome cowboys, wild benders and the spirit of country music: the kind of songs that go hand in hand with cracking a cold one.
