That's sort of what "Mississippi," a new tune from the Cactus Blossoms, sounds like. It's a love song that harkens back to the days of Conway Twitty and the like, with that sweet Spanish guitar that's so entrenched in our brains as a sound of the Wild Wild West.Press play, take off your boots, and relax as you float down the river that is this song. The Cactus Blossoms' new album, You're Dreaming, is now available for preorder, too, and drops January 22 via Red House Records.
