“You Can Learn A Lot From A Song” (Mountain Fever Records) is the new single by Eastern Kentucky-based band Hammertowne. The song will appear on the band’s fifth album on the label, scheduled for release later this year.
The song was written by bandleader David Carroll, who said, “I carried the song’s hook around for a while before I sat down and wrote it. I imagine the premise will be relatable to many folks because music in general, especially particular songs, has such a powerful presence in our lives. I know it does for me. A particularly beautiful sunset on the day a friend laid her mom to rest inspired me to pick up the pen and finally finish this song. Songs are personal to me, and I know I’ve certainly learned a lot from them.”
Hammertowne includes David Carroll on guitar and vocals; Chaston Carroll on mandolin and vocals; Bryan Russell on bass; Scott Tackett on guitar and vocals; and Dale Thomas on banjo.
Hammertowne’s discography includes their debut self-titled album, Hammertowne, followed by Pictures, Highways and Heartaches, and Hillbilly Heroes.
