In an era where country music often finds itself leaning toward pop polish and big-city shine, Jon Wolfe is keeping the neon lights burning in the corner bar. With his new album Barstool Therapy: Session One, out now, the Oklahoma-born traditionalist delivers a masterclass in authenticity, the kind of record that smells like spilled whiskey, worn leather, and heartbreak half-healed.
Produced by GRAMMY®-nominated Dave Brainard, Barstool Therapy: Session One finds Wolfe turning the mirror on himself with rare honesty. It’s a project that feels lived-in and true, more than a collection of songs, it’s a conversation between a man and the music that’s carried him through.
Lead by his unmistakable baritone, a voice built for jukeboxes and long drives down backroads, Wolfe pours heart and grit into each track. Fans will recognize that signature sound and a deeper kind of storytelling. These are songs born of late nights and hard truths, wrapped in the comforting hum of pedal steel and fiddle. Across eight tracks, Wolfe strikes the perfect balance between honky-tonk swagger and soul-baring vulnerability. There’s plenty of boot-stomping energy, but it’s his quieter moments that hit hardest, like the standout “Jesus and Marianne,” written with Brainard and Tony Ramey, a song that finds beauty in the simple, sacred moments between sin and salvation.
At its core, Barstool Therapy: Session One isn’t just a title, it’s a philosophy. It’s about finding comfort in the familiar, about how sometimes the best therapy comes from a friendly bartender and a well-worn stool. With this release, Jon Wolfe doesn’t just reaffirm his place among country’s modern torchbearers, he reminds us why we fell in love with country music in the first place. Raw. Real. Unapologetically honest.
