I’ve had one of those days where the music just doesn’t seem to stick. Every song either made me turn up my nose or just washed over me without making an impression. And then I heard “Wild Card,” the charming new single from Boorloo/Perth singer-songwriter Whiskey Jack. It’s a gentle, folky ditty that has a warm, nostalgic air that’s cast a spell over me. Amazing poetic lyrics, a distinctive, special voice; I’m sold.
“This song is about the highs and lows of going through things together, and being there for someone even while watching them repeat the same mistakes,” Whiskey Jack explained.
This is so special, hopefully we’ll be hearing a lot more from Whiskey Jack in the future.
