“The Waymores…have a shared vision to bring the sound of the classic country duets of
Conway Twitty and Loretta Lynn, Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash, Dolly Parton and
Porter Wagoner, and George Jones and Tammy Wynette, filtered through a modern
lens, to today’s generation of country and americana listeners.” – AMERICANA-UK
“This third 10-course meal of delicious country music comes on a plate called Greener
Pastures…Atlanta-based Willie Heath Neal & Kira Annalise are the epitome of
excellence vocally when it comes to recapturing that spell of country music…Together
they are ginger ale & whiskey. This is a first-class act.” -- AMERICANA HIGHWAYS
“The 10-song collection contains three choice covers and seven comparable originals,
all of which would sound right at home on any classic country and western radio
station.” -- ATLANTA JOURNAL CONSTITUTION
“A bold but unstrained excursion into old-school county with plenty of honky-tonk flavor,
the lean 10-song effort was produced by Shel Talmy. It’s an unlikely but fruitful matchup,
as The Waymores’ grip on classic country song form is as firm as ever.” – THE VINYL
DISTRICT
“Suffice it to say, the Atlanta-based duo has recorded their finest set of retro country,
one that should raise their profile substantially…be prepared to be knocked out by the
duo’s harmonies and classic C&W songwriting.” – CREATIVE LOAFING ATLANTA
“…(The) relentless pace has brought them a devoted fan base hungry for a sound that
eschews the so-called “stadium country” for something rootsy and organic. A
commitment to that sound has led the duo to Greener Pastures. While throwbacks to
earlier eras of country music have always defined the Waymores’ sound, the songs on
this record seem less like nods to the past than they do long lost tapes from 50 years
ago.” – ARTS ATL
“This upbeat, magnificently-hued and just darn tottin’ fun to listen to new album opens
on the gentle twang of Under Your Spell Again and the melodically rhythmical
Flashbacks of a Fool and then continues onward with the rousingly jaunty You Got Gold,
the mid-tempo ballad Time to Ramble and then we get the sentimentally buoyant
Greener pastures. Along next, an aching yearn can be found veined throughout Don’t
Worry, and that is in turn followed by the encouraging But I Don’t, the aptly-named Hill
Country Waltz, the album rounding out on the rambunctious She’s Gone, closing on the
cheery Tavern Time.” – EXCLUSIVE MAGAZINE
“This one comes with a backstory that’s kind of encouraging for artists slogging away in
more remote, less arts-centric areas of the country. We’re talking about throwbackcountry/
bluegrass stuff here, the real deal…the songs weave a tapestry of old-school
country and pop that’s at times reminiscent of Linda Ronstadt, Bonnie Raitt, that kind of
thing. Good for them. A+” -- HIPPO PRESS
“The harmonies are delicious, as on the C&W’d “Under Your Spell Again” and the two
stepping “Flashbacks Of A Fool…”” – JAZZ WEEKLY
“I love the production choices on songs including “She’s Gone,” that soft, echo-y reverb
on Neal’s vocals taking us to another time… Greener Pastures is country music, without
compromise, and a reminder of what this music used to sound like—and, apparently,
still can!” – FERVOR COULEE
“It’s great to see this married couple back in the country saddle again, with some more
happy-go-lucky—as well as more complicated—music for your listening
pleasure.complicated—music for your listening pleasure… Fun and free-spirited, the
Waymores surely don’t need to move on to any pastures more green than this album.”
(five stars) – READ JUNK
In the studio or on the stage, The Waymores deliver satisfying, 100-proof honky tonk
free of pretension and full of lived-in, road-tested honesty. – THE CREEK FM
(MACON, GA)
“…Classic vocal style… revivalist charm…With their Bakersfield-drenched style of
honky-tonk, the Waymores prove that “Greener Pastures” isn’t always a place;
sometimes it’s a musical state of mind.” – TURNSTYLED JUNKPILED
“In a time when the country music industry seems to be flooded with cookie-cutter pop
tunes and auto-tuned voices, finding authentic country music can feel like searching for
a needle in a haystack. But fear not, because here come The Waymores to the rescue!
The Waymores are a breath of fresh air. Their unique blend of traditional sounds and
contemporary storytelling creates a magical musical experience that will transport you to
a simpler time. With their harmonies and honest lyrics, they capture the essence of what
country music is all about.” – TWANGRI-LA
The original numbers are the star of the show, though. But I Don’t is a classic country
waltz with a line that’s a whole story unto itself, “if you had a heart, this song would
break it, but you don’t, so I pretend… a sound that would make The Waymores a perfect
fit for any of the jukeboxes in the honky-tonks they sing about.” -- TWANGVILLE
