Dixie Electric Company is a collection of eleven songs encapsulated in heartbreaking tales from death and failed relationships to lost loves and road trips. The album opens with the title track telling the story of the Airstream trailer Stalcup purchased from an old preacher who had recently lost his son to a motorcycle accident. This is the type of deep content on which damn near every song on the album is permeated, a definite high note for sad song enthusiasts such as myself. Don’t get me wrong, there are plenty of foot stompin’ rock songs, but they’re mostly written about darker sides of life’s experiences. Songs like “California”, the rockabilly offering “Pawnshop,” and the revisited Chase 56 live show favorite “Into The Wind,” will satisfy anybody’s Americana-rock craving. The record is a perfect balance of sad songs to rock songs: “Dixie Electric Company,” “Eastern Stars,” and “Caroline” are a few highlights of the former.
