Just like you’d expect with a title of It All Happened in a Honky Tonk, Jon Wolfe’s record is chock full-o tunes about bars, love found and lost in ’em and about lost souls looking to get over a lost love.
After a little more time working in Nashville, Jon Wolfe returned to Texas, built up a fan base and set about finally getting an album out. That album, the fantastic It All Happened In A Honky Tonk showcases a singer/songwriter with a penchant for writing and recording tunes that feel like a good pair of comfortable Wrangler jeans. As mentioned in the first paragraph, Jon Wolfe possesses a voice that easily recalls George Strait, perhaps even more than Easton Corbin does. It’s not just the phrasing in his singing but the way he growls and sings about honky tonks, rodeos and country and ranchin’ life. “Let A Country Boy Love You” shows off all of this stuff as Jon Wolfe sings about an oft-worn story about a girl who left the small town life for the big city lights and yet when she comes back, Wolfe proclaims that he could sweep her off her feet and treat her the way that only ‘a country boy’ can and ‘love you like you deserve.’ Being marketed to Texas and Oklahoma markets instead of a broader national set-up (at least at first), the single stands a fair shot at getting up the Texas Music Charts, something that will likely happen to a majority of the songs on It All Happened In A Honky Tonk.
