Hayes Carll: “Things You Don’t Wanna Know” (Live in Studio 1A)

By: Jack Anderson

Hayes Carll is no stranger to the Old Settler’s Music Festival- his earliest appearance was back in 2009 and he is back at it this year. Well known for his humorous lyrics and classic Americana sound, Carll continues to fine-tune his approach to producing music that is as soulful as it is impressive. He released his sixth album, What It Is, this February which has been met with abundant praise.  A new album paired with the same charm, his performance at this year’s Old Settler’s is sure to be memorable. You can listen to him today from 6:45-8:00 pm at Original Black’s BBQ Stage.

For now, let’s listen back to the Studio 1A performance of a track off the new album, “Things You Don’t Wanna Know”!

BS: “f1”

Austin’s BS comes in hot with “f1,” a fast-moving track that lives up to its name. Built on propulsive drums and sharp, forward-leaning production, the song feels like it’s constantly accelerating, carrying a restless energy from start to finish. It’s a short, sharp burst of momentum that doesn’t waste much time getting where it’s going. […]
