BLAKE DANTIER

…A country song is humbly filling the silence between barflies murmuring and the chink of glasses – it’s probably even coming from an actual jukebox, spotlighted by red neon. Crying steel licks… fiddles and guitars… That’s Blake Dantier.
But don’t be fooled. He aint just barroom background filler. His previous single Last Call is a gritty beer-soaked anthem, hell bent on a good time. Akin to a 90s country barn burner – a la Brooks and Dunn. The song you heard on the jukebox was probably his latest single, Layover. Its laid back, tropical groove makes you wish you were on a cruise ship (remember those?), sipping a pina colada at 11am in the morning.
