Dashing Nashville native (but now Nashville based) Andrew Combs kicks off his European tour this week, which coincides with a re-issue of his first album, ‘Worried Man’. The deluxe digital edition includes new re-cuts of two tracks, including ‘Too Stoned To Cry’, which you can hear below. Hey, we’ve all been there. Andrew explained: “I’ve always wanted to re-record ‘Too Stoned to Cry.’ I love the song, but can’t stand my vocal take on the original. I sound so young and pitchy! This is just an updated version, somewhat replicating how we play it every night on the road.”
Combs also took on ‘Take It From Me’ and reworked the track for the deluxe digital reissue. He recounts: “I’ve always liked the sentiment of the song, but the original musical arrangement now bores me a little bit. We decided to change it up a bit, going for a glossy, Chris Isaak kind of feel.”
‘Worried Man’ will be out from this Friday (18th January), repackaged and available for the first time on heavyweight white vinyl, as well as on CD and as a deluxe digital package. And here are the UK dates, with support from another Nashvillian, Charlie Witten:
