The Gun in His Hand, The Look on His Face

Drayton Farley performs “Trouble in the Pines” live for OurVinyl — a haunting, character-driven ballad of despair and quiet redemption.

“Trouble in the Pines” follows a chance encounter in the woods that turns into a meditation on hopelessness and the will to keep going. Stripped down to just voice and guitar, this live session leans into the song’s weight instead of shying away from it.

Drayton Farley is an Americana songwriter from Woodstock, Alabama — a small town outside Birmingham where he crafted a confessional, stripped-back sound in the tradition of John Prine and Kris Kristofferson. His 2023 album Twenty on High, produced by Sadler Vaden at Nashville’s Sound Emporium, was his breakthrough, earning him a Grand Ole Opry debut that September and a growing following across the Americana circuit.
