There’s some great playing on this new track from Alison Self. Electric twang and a quick-fire shuffle make for a rippin’ good honky-tonk sound for Self to sing over in her rough and raw voice. Self is based in Portland after time spent in Nashville, Denver and Austin and her new EP is her latest release in over a decade of releasing music.

“This song is about trying to work through a relationship but not getting any effort from your other half, the only solution is to break up, and tell that person they can go to hell, cause you wouldn’t even kiss them at your drunkest at this point. They had a several chances and simply blew it.”

‘Whiskey Drunk’ comes from her equally fine 2020 EP Honky Tonk Haze which you can grab via Bandcamp or listen to on the usual streaming services.
