It was music that brought the couple together over ten years ago and lead to love and now it's love that inspires the music. The Wrights' self-titled EP is a splendid and refreshing album with a focus on mature songwriting that doesn't resort to banal love cliches. It's a fine example of what country music can and should be. My one complaint is that it had to end after only eight songs. — Brady Vercher [...] [...] The Wrights – The Wrights With one album to their name, the husband and wife duo consisting of Adam and Shannon Wright recently released a followup EP simply titled The Wrights on a label (ACR) owned by Adam’s uncle, Alan Jackson.

I'm still waiting for my copy to come through the mail after ordering it through The Wright's website last week. The Wright's have always focused their songwriting on rocky relationships, and if the songs are autobiographical then its amazing they are still together at this point in time. I love the totally unique music they make together and hope their marriage lasts a long time for that reason alone. My only disappointment is that its been two and a half years since their excellent "Down This Road" debut album hit the shelves in May 2005. The fact they could only come up with so few original songs in the interim is not a good sign for the long term. On the other hand I'm extremely pleased they are releasing anything at this point in time. They are too good to be another Nashville "cast off of the day"...

Alan has been a constant hitmaker, he's true country - and he just reminds me of home and good people - no kidding all the guy has to do to get a cheer is walk out onto the stage. Anyways, I'll have to be on the lookout for this one. It seems like they keep writing more and more for Alan, doesn’t it?

Alan has been a constant hitmaker, he’s true country – and he just reminds me of home and good people – no kidding all the guy has to do to get a cheer is walk out onto the stage.

Anyways, I’ll have to be on the lookout for this one.
