Response to Anna: Like Anna, I am also a huge country music fan. The Zac Brown Band is one of my favorite country-music bands and I have been listening to them for a while now, especially in the summer! This is probably because a lot of their music is about kicking back and having a good time, which is what most people look forward to doing in the summer. The song “Toes” definitely shows this. I think the Zac Brown Band has a variety of songs; some are about life and experiences, whereas some of their other songs are more geared to easy-going lyrics about the simple things in life and just enjoying it, such as the song “Chicken Fried,” like Anna mentioned. I would also agree with Anna that the lyrics in the Zac Brown Band’s songs are extremely relatable and upbeat, so you can’t help belting out the words when you’re jamming in your car. I think that the Zac Brown Band is very similar to the Eli Young Band. Both of the lead singers’ voices sound a lot alike and each of the bands’ lyrics have the same concepts of life in them. I think that country music can put anyone in a good mood, especially me! Overall, the Zac Brown Band’s music puts people in a good mood and has great songs with interesting lyrics. I think they will keep gaining fans and becoming more popular in the world, so I can’t wait to see what new albums and songs they come out with next!
