“End It With Whiskey” catches Tristan Roberson aching for connection one night in town. Flirtatious and infectious, with twangy guitar and an honest voice, but the Texas cowboy isn’t here to stay.
Roberson feels like the kind of musician who is born for an audience. His songwriting and storytelling easily evoke feelings in those who listen to his music. “End It With Whiskey” isn’t the most flashy track in his upcoming album, ‘One Night In Dallas,’ coming on May 8, but it has all his marks: memorable, authentic, and almost conversational. The appeal is easy to recognize. Almost immediately, Roberson establishes a connection with his listeners and engages them in a casual conversation through his lyrics, which is a gift that not many have. When you listen to his songs, it doesn’t feel like he’s performing, but rather he’s speaking to you and telling you stories.
On the surface, “End It With Whiskey” is a song about the matter of the heart, but diving deep, the song tells a twisty tale of those being called to something bigger than themselves and never meant for an ordinary life. The conflicts between hearts and missions and the choice that leads to life resonate through his guitar. ‘One Night In Dallas’ gets messy and entangled, but it’s all heart.
The Country rising star pours his heart into every song he sings, and through each of them, he creates memories and leaves a long-lasting impression. Just like he sings in “End It With Whiskey, it “starts with wine and end with whiskey.”
