Troy Cartwright Drops Five-Song 'Don't Fade' EP
New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Nashville-by-way-of-Dallas musician Troy Cartwright delivers a genre-blurring five-song EP titled 'Don't Fade,' out now, via Hard Luck Recording Company. Channeling the heartfelt vulnerability of Ryan Adams and the commanding arena-ready stage presence of Eric Church, the collection is produced by Brian Douglas Phillips and fellow songwriter Rob Baird.

The sound is ultimately a warm, emotion-friendly blend that calls to mind everything from Will Hoge to The Old 97's. Earworm opener "Never Coming Back" is an ideal showcase for Cartwright's gifts, with his vocals riding a laid-back drum groove punctuated by dynamic electric guitar riffs and classic rock organ swells.

The songwriter takes a darker turn on "Busted," a driving, gritty tune inspired by the breakdown of a truck in the west Texas heat that mirrored the breakdown of his own crumbling relationship, while "Nobody But You" channels the pain of staying behind while a loved one leaves, and the sweetly emotional "Don't Fade" battles the inevitable passage of time. One of the most special moments for Cartwright, though, comes at the end of the EP, as the stripped-down acoustic meditation of "Arkansas" drifts off into an ethereal soundscape like the last rays of light at sunset.

'Don't Fade' is Cartwright's first EP since moving to Nashville, and he's touring his first fall as part of the William Morris Endeavor roster. For more on the authentic storyteller, please visit troycartwright.com.
