At the moment his discography is limited to just under a dozen originals, but the passion and sincerity behind Brooklyn’s Hayes Peebles is nothing to overlook. As mature as his songwriting is, it’s still very much the beginning for this youngster, with lyrics that evoke Bright Eyes’ Conor Oberst and sonics akin to Townes Van Zandt and Steve Earle.
You can expect more from this Americana genre-fuser in the near future, who just shared a bold addition to his steadily growing catalogue. Last Friday Hayes Peebles unleashed this road-inspired tune about overcoming the little things to experience the world’s true beauty, “Riding High”!
