There was always the danger that Blackberry Smoke would end up being too country for rock fans and too rock for the country mass. But in this seventh studio album, the southerners show not only their skill to balance perfectly their two main influences but also, make Georgia feel proud once again. No one can argue that the feature of Warren Haynes (Allman Brothers, Gov't Mule) and The Black Bettys who provide background vocals, give a greater substance to the southern ideology. You Hear Georgia blends eloquently meaningful songwriting, tight rhythms and solid riffs, making this a great southern rock release that stands proudly next to the band's previous robust releases, The Whippoorwill and Holding All The Roses. Probably the album's focal point is the title track which delves into the misguided stereotypes and highlights the perceptions inflicted upon people coming from the American South. However, the tracks I personally enjoyed most were the folky ballad "Old Enough to Know", the energetic mid-tempo "Ain't the Same" which reminded me of the band's earlier days and the frisky opener "Live It Down".
