Roc Helton Drops "Working & Drinking"

“’Working & Drinking’ is a song for the working man. It’s about long days, longer nights, and the year of my life I spent chasing a paycheck and the bottom of a glass. It’s about the way you tell yourself you’re doing fine while everything you care about is waiting on you. There’s no lesson, just an honest look at where I’ve been and what it has cost me,” shares Cloverdale Records’ Roc Helton when speaking about his recent release, which dropped on Friday, January 23.

The Florida native is quietly making waves in our ever-changing industry with his consistent flow of releases and road dog mentality – playing show after show and recently opening for artists such as Leon Majcen and Wyatt Ellis. His large catalog speaks volumes to his unique approach to Country and Americana, effortlessly captivating each listener, and it’s set to expand even more with the release of his forthcoming project, dropping February 13.

Infused with the spirit of a southern rock song, but guided by the rhythmic foundation of a country tune, “Working & Drinking” is an uptempo song that invites listeners to sing along and reflect on the missteps and choices that ultimately shaped who they are today.

Built on simple instrumentation and anchored by his unmistakable voice and honest lyrics, Helton’s catalog never feels overdone it’s simply just good, raw music.

Showing no sign of slowing down, the emerging artist is surely someone worth watching as his story continues to unfold.
