About This Song
About "Treading Whiskey" by Brad Paisley
Paisley wades through 'Treading Whiskey' with a weary stomp and a bottle's worth of sorrowβa barroom confessional where the pedal steel sighs like a ghost. The groove is loose, almost stumbling, mirroring a man trying to stay upright while drowning in memory. It's honky-tonk heartbreak with a bruising, lived-in charm.
