Country Heroes - Hank Williams III - MP3 instrumental karaoke

The heir to a rich, multi-generational country music legacy, Nashville-born singer-songwriter Hank Williams III has been putting his punk-infused twist on his family's musical tradition ever since he burst onto the scene with his studio debut Risin' Outlaw in 1999. After a legal dispute with Curb Records following the release of his second album Lovesick, Broke and Driftin' (2002), Hank Williams III spent the next few years assembling his third LP Straight to Hell (2006), an ambitious double album that paid homage to his musical influences while also indulging in his more experimental tendencies. Nowhere is this more evident than on the whiskey-soaked "Country Heroes," a slow-burning country tune that adheres to the genre's ever-recurring drinking trope and namechecks trailblazing pioneers such as George Jones, David Allan Coe, Merle Haggard, Waylon Jennings, and Johnny Cash. Its parent album, Straight to Hell, reached Number 17 on the US Top Country Albums chart.
