Hudson Westbrook - "Damn Good Taste In Whiskey"

Hudson Westbrook’s “Damn Good Taste In Whiskey” is a sharp, barstool confession that grabs you by the collar — part heartbreak anthem, part cheeky red-dirt boast. The track is the latest teaser from his upcoming debut album *Texas Forever*, due July 25¹, and it proves the 20‑year‑old Stephenville native is forging a proper outlaw legacy².

The song opens on a warm mid-tempo groove flickering with acoustic guitars, fiddle, and a steady drumbeat that feels familiar without feeling safe. Westbrook’s voice—earthy, self-aware, and Texas-proud—delivers a line that’s already echoing through small bars across the state:
> “I guess I like things that burn my chest… But a damn good taste in whiskey.”²

Written alongside Randy Montana and produced by Lukas Scott & Ryan Youmans, the track blends red-dirt authenticity with enough polish for mainstream ears².

The accompanying “Visualizer” captures the mood — low-light bar scenes, whiskey-soaked melancholy, and that Texas pride that doesn’t need neon to make its point⁰. With charting singles like “House Again” and a fast-growing streaming presence, Westbrook’s on the rise².

Final Verdict:

“Damn Good Taste In Whiskey” is a well-aged statement of purpose — laced with humor, honesty, and Texan heart. Hudson Westbrook isn’t riding tradition — he’s remixing it with swagger and vision. With *Texas Forever* dropping soon, this ride’s only just revving up.
