Ryan Purcell writes songs that are evocative of the places Jason Aldean sings about in his self-explanatory Middle American anthem “Fly Over States.” Yet Purcell is an artist based in very non-flyover Seattle whose tunes make you want to guzzle Oly and refurbish an abandoned Nalley Valley smelter for residential purposes. He glides effortlessly between slow-burning ballads and honky-tonk; bourbon sales should soar. With Jackrabbit, The Tripwires. MIKE SEELY
