3. Top Country Albums of 2016: Dean Brody – Beautiful Freakshow
For Brody, 2016 has epitomized the importance of taking risks with his craft and refusing to settle for the status quo. His current single, ‘Time‘ has fans commenting on social media about the impact of the song in their lives.
Beautiful Freakshow is a fascinating mashup of Brody’s broad range of musical preferences, best epitomized by the title track, ‘Beautiful Freakshow’, which features a rap vocal by Halifax native, Shevy Price. From the pop-meets-country vibe of ‘Bush Party’ (released this summer, and the #1 Most Added Single at the time of release), to hints of other genres intertwined with traditional country, there is truly something for everyone on the album.
