Drawing from influences such as Sam Cooke, Otis Redding, Jeff Buckley, and Van Morrison, Cory Sellers compounds the nuclei of country, soul and folk, creating a well-rounded, highly-relatable entity which he refers to as “country fried soul”. Infusing his music with youthful energy and enthusiasm, Sellers presents an adaptable, digestible and approachable hybrid of genres which, when it’s all said and done, hovers very near roots rock and Americana as well. However, having grown up in Alabama, the country roots run deep in his music, as do his faith and conscience. This self-titled, six-track album is a great pick for country music lovers looking for new music from a greener perspective.
