Listening to “Man I Used To Be”, it’s hard not to be swept away by the emotion and authenticity in Dax’s voice. It’s more than just a song; it’s a piece of his heart, transformed into music. Recorded during a significant time when he was sober for six months, there’s a clear sense of discipline and purpose that runs through each line. Collaborating with producer Jimmy Robbins in Nashville, Dax has created a track that feels stripped back yet powerful, allowing the lyrics to take center stage. This release reflects not only his growth as an artist but also as a person.
“Man I Used To Be” stands out with its raw vulnerability and honest storytelling. Dax doesn’t shy away from his flaws or struggles; instead, he channels them into his music. There’s a sense of catharsis in his words, as he reflects on the parts of himself he’s outgrown to become stronger. His vocals carry both grit and calmness, almost like a conversation with listeners who may be facing their own battles. The organic, raw quality of the Nashville recording adds to the song’s depth, and Dax himself shared that it felt as though God was present in the room an energy that is truly felt when listening closely.
Looking ahead, “Man I Used To Be” marks the start of a new chapter for Dax. His ‘Lonely Dirt Road Tour’ begins in late October, where he will bring not only his music but also his message to audiences across the country. His vision “Music for the people, spread by the people” comes through clearly in this release. This isn’t just a song to be heard; it’s a moment of truth, shared openly with the hope of reaching those who need strength.
