“Best of Intentions” – Travis Tritt Cover
A heartfelt tribute to a classic country ballad. This cover brings out the raw emotion, regret, and enduring love woven into every lyric of Travis Tritt’s original. With a 90s country soul and stripped-back sincerity, it’s a reminder that sometimes love is imperfect—but always honest.

🎸 Inspired by the timeless storytelling of Travis Tritt

Best Of Intentions

This is my take on Dierks Bentley’s “Settle for a Slowdown.” I wanted to capture the heartfelt emotion and slow-burning storytelling of the original while giving it my own style. A laid-back country vibe mixed with perfect nostalgia—for when you need to just pause, reflect, and ride the moment.
