Ever Mine (ft. Alison Krauss)
Like ‘Sleepless in a Hotel Room’, Combs first teased ’Ever Mine‘ during his COVID-19 lockdown sessions on social media. This bittersweet track features subtle vocals from Allison Krauss, and was penned with Hailey Whitters and Charlie Worsham.
It plays as a letter from a soldier to his love back home, and features a deeply evocative and visceral array of imagery, as he underlines that, regardless of how their story ends on earth, they forever belong to one another. The wistful, banjo-driven composition has us wondering if this was initially intended to appear on Combs’ scrapped bluegrass album, alongside ‘The Great Divide’ with Billy Strings.
Either way, it’s a powerful offering, and one of the most enchanting, spellbinding tracks on the project. Given how long we’d been waiting for this one, expectations were through the roof, but somehow, this studio version far exceeds them.
