\nHAYES CARLL
\nHayes Carll isn\u2019t preaching or teaching. He\u2019s not interested in telling the rest of us what to do or think. But he is charting out a personal guide for his life, quieting the noise, and sitting with his real voice \u2013 the one that\u2019s candid, consistent, and often inconvenient.<\/p>\n
We\u2019re Only Human is Carll\u2019s tenth album. Like his best lyrics, it is also an understated masterpiece, an honest snapshot of one man\u2019s confrontation and delight with humanity\u2019s biggest and most intimate questions. Where do we find forgiveness for ourselves and grace for others? How do we hold on to peace of mind and stay present? What can we\u2014and should we\u2013\u2013trust? And how can we moor ourselves to, well, ourselves, in the midst of confusing, trying times? We\u2019re Only Human offers audiences the chance to listen to Carll as he listens to himself.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve lived outside of myself for so long,\u201d Carll admits. \u201cDistractions, fear, anxiety, insecurity, and the complexity of being human in this world have so often pulled me away from being present or at peace.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI feel like there\u2019s been a voice riding shotgun all my life, pushing me to do better, but I\u2019ve struggled to listen to it,\u201d Carll says. \u201cThe idea behind this record was to do the personal work I needed to do, then codify those lessons in song to serve as sort of breadcrumbs to get me back on the trail if, and inevitably when, I get lost again.\u201d<\/p>\n
Carll is more than two decades into a celebrated career. Praise from places such as Pitchfork and the New York Times\u2013\u2013the latter of which yoked Carll\u2019s ability to tackle tough issues with wry humor to Bob Dylan\u2013\u2013punctuate a resume that includes Americana Music Awards and a Grammy nomination. His songs aren\u2019t safe, but many of Nashville\u2019s stars have recorded them, including Kenny Chesney, Lee Ann Womack, and Brothers Osborne. As a solo recording artist, Carll has long-since established himself as one of Americana\u2019s most-played\u2013\u2013and most loved\u2013\u2013voices. His warm but crackling vocals, wit, and heart dance through wordplay that\u2019s always clever, and never too precious.<\/p>\n
As We\u2019re Only Human collects moments of Carll figuring out how to be with himself, the songs feel forthright, hopeful, and timely. In today\u2019s onslaught of instant gratification, rage-baiting headlines, glorified intolerance, and falling empathy, the record is a startling outlier: an artist\u2019s raw, real-life effort to live well\u2014both with himself and others. Carll embraces private epiphanies, and shares them with the world, allowing them to unfold for all to see and share.<\/p>\n
