How was “I Never Lie” created?
I wrote it with Carson Chamberlain and Tim Nichols. I have one of my more clever rhymes on there with “Angel” and “April” in the first verse [“You still look like an angel/I heard you’re doing fine, got promoted back in April”]. We cut it pretty old-school with the band, and I sang and tracked the vocals as they were playing. They never hear the song until the day we record it. I’ll have an acoustic recording on my phone, and they hear it once or twice, and that’s it. It’s two or three takes, and we play it like we feel it. We might overdub a thing or two or add some fills, but it’s all played live.
What has been your reaction to it…
