{"product_id":"john-pardi-california-sunrise","title":"California Sunrise","description":"On the cover of his 2014 debut, Write You a Song, Jon Pardi seemed a bit like a metrosexual country boy but on California Sunrise, its 2016 sequel, he's decked out like an old-school cowboy, complete with a big hat and blue jeans. This is the major change in image, but the music on California Sunrise isn't markedly different than the debut. Like the high-octane Write You a Song before it, California Sunrise is produced by Bart Butler, but the album finds space for softer tones and slower tempos, a shift that opens the doors for a little experimentation with rhythms. \"Heartache on the Dance Floor\" bears a bit of R\u0026amp;B-friendly AAA pop sheen, and at its core \"Lucky Tonight\" is a soul song all gussied up with fiddles and blues guitar. A few other cuts are light on their feet -- \"Head Over Boots\" rolls along with its singalong chorus, \"Cowboy Hat\" trades upon the leering twilight of bro-country -- but California Sunrise remains grounded in sinewy, straight-ahead country, sometimes delivered by Pardi with a sly grin. Perhaps his cheer is a bit subdued -- his everyday persona can work against him, suggesting that he's not much more than a guy next door -- but this workingman's diligence is a key element in turning California Sunrise into a frills-free, sturdily crafted collection. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Country\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 1\/1\/1980\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"John Pardi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44584952791273,"sku":"174ASX-9E2O-00","price":26.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/john-pardi-california-sunrise_O8IYN.jpg?v=1758896706","url":"https:\/\/www.vibinvinyl.com\/products\/john-pardi-california-sunrise","provider":"Vibin' Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
