“Like a more countrified version of John Prine, or a more compositionally-minded version of Jerry Jeff Walker during his gonzo era, Mac Leaphart immediately earns your ear and devotion with this handful of incredibly well-written songwriter songs and rousing boot scooters that are just about perfectly produced and ripe for repeat listening. Music City Joke really gives you everything you want from a country and roots record, and feels like one we’ll be listening to for years. Music City Joke fails to hit a bad note & ain’t no laughing matter”
