Demo of the Week: “Like I Know This Road”
Writers: Casey Beathard, Scooter Carusoe
Vibe: Soundtrack to a long drive with a lot on your mind
Key lyrics: “I know every late night dive, used car lot and peach grove / I could probably close my eyes and still dodge most the potholes / I know that Texaco on Main counter clerk by name / and I know that I’d still have your hand to hold / if I knew you like I know this road”
Could be a good fit for: Tim McGraw, David Nail, Keith Urban, Craig Morgan
X factor: Lyrically brilliant, subtle and image-heavy, emotional without being overbearing
