Justin Moore has never been one to follow the pack. A multiplatinum country star who left Nashville for the simple pleasures of small-town life, he built his remarkable career playing by his own rules, eschewing spotlight-chasing in favor of an honest, old-school approach. It makes perfect sense his captivating new album is titled Stray Dog. Mature and nuanced, the collection showcases Moore at his most self-assured with songs of desire and commitment, heartbreak and regret, and joy and celebration.
