Content

edit

In late 2017, Swindell published a music video for "Beer in the Headlights",[5] a song originally recorded by Luke Bryan on his 2013 album Crash My Party, and Swindell's rendition of Bryan's collaboration with Florida Georgia Line, "This Is How We Roll", which he co-wrote.[6] In addition to those two songs, Down Home Sessions IV features Swindell's renditions of three other songs that he wrote for other artists: "Roller Coaster", also cut by Bryan; "Outta My Head", recorded by Craig Campbell; and "Get Me Some of That", recorded by Thomas Rhett.[7]

Critical reception

edit

Markos Papadatos of Digital Journal stated that Swindell's 'cover of "This is How We Roll" is infectious, and it would make country duo Florida Georgia Line proud', giving it 4.5 out of 5 stars.[8] Cillea Houghton of Sounds Like Nashville stated that the musician "presents the songs in the stripped down, acoustic fashion they were created in".[9]
