Flirting with country music throughout his career, Ben Kweller embraces his southern roots on Changing Horses, with a down-home record filled with pedal steel and honky-tonk inspiration. Changing Horses showcases Kweller’s storytelling and replaces the indie pop melodies of past records with Americana feel. This is hard luck style songwriting complete with bus stations, starry skies, heartache and lonesome highways. Changing Horses marks a turning point in the songwriter’s career – an anticipated foreshadowing of what may be to come.
