The album “Leaving Can’t Be Wrong” by Adam Moe functions as a heartfelt tribute to classic country with its raw authenticity and traditional foundation. The opening notes of “Some Days” immediately announce its classic country sound. The song begins with comforting fiddle lines and authentic lyrics about rough mornings and long nights that resonate with everyone. “Beggars Can’t Be Choosers” follows with an inventive play on words and a consistent shuffle sound reminiscent of an old jukebox. The song “Blue Skies and Highways” provides a relaxing musical journey, allowing listeners to immerse themselves in its gentle rhythm and welcoming melody.
The songs “That’s Why They Call It Crazy” and “Lost at Sea” serve as pivotal moments in the album by introducing enhanced emotional depth. The first track examines heartbreak through a gentle vocal performance that feels intimate and revealing. The second track explores themes of drifting solitude by combining melancholy words with subtle guitar and fiddle arrangements. The album finds its emotional core in the title track “Leaving Can’t Be Wrong”. Adam sings about moving on from the past with clear conviction and without bitterness in his calm voice. The song “Fool on the Stool Next To You” demonstrates his talent for combining humorous yet truthful lyrics in his grounded songwriting style.
The collection concludes with “Limpin’ Home”, “Never Fool This Fool Again”, and “Where Would I Be Without You” which exhibit authentic retro country textures that remain natural. These tracks deliver authenticity by existing naturally without any forced effort. Moe combines his vocal work with songwriting and fiddle skills to unite the whole performance. The music stands out because of its authenticity and heartfelt creation rather than flashy elements. The project serves as a reminder that the essence it embodies never truly disappeared.
