Tiera Kennedy "Alabama Nights" Song Review

Tiera Kennedy’s newest song, “Alabama Nights” is the ultimate fall party anthem. It’s perfect for those bonfire nights with your favorite cocktail.

Kennedy is known for her fresh perspective as an up-and-comer in the Nashville scene. Her music reflects her ability to tell a great story that’s relatable and extremely catchy. Compared to her romantic breakout track, "Found It In You," the Big Machine artist switches gears with the more twangy, upbeat tune; one can’t help but rock back and forth to the beat of "Alabama Nights," all while being sucked into the lyrics.

"Alabama Nights" starts with a harmonica solo by Kirk “Jellyroll” Johnson and soon adds the catchy acoustic beat that carries through the whole song. It immediately gives a sense of nostalgia, bringing audiences back to a careless, laid-back feeling; something humans constantly yearn for.

Kennedy sings, “Brick house and blue jeans, a picket fence, American dreams,” which immediately paints a vivid picture of where she came from. Not only does this share a piece of her story of being raised in Alabama, but it’s told in a way with a level of specificity that no matter where you are from, you can feel some type of similarity.

Produced by Cameron Bedell and Dann Huff, Kennedy is backed by ACM Award winners Ilya Toshinskiy on the acoustic guitar and Derek Wells on the electric guitar. Kennedy has a way of sharing and connecting with her listeners, and this song is no exception.
