A lot can change in three years. Nothing Left to Hide (2005) surveyed an intense period of lonesome soul-searching for this Texas troubadour, but Vagrants and Kings is a “new snapshot” and tells a different story. Morrow seems to have found the peace he was lookin’ for without sacrificing the hook to his rowdy, dance-hall country style. Tracks like “He Carries Me” and “Lord, You Devil” illustrate revitalized faith, hope and the importance of self-forgiveness. “I Can Wait” and “Love Finds Everyone” celebrate patience and new love. Thick, catchy country-blues emerge in “Getting Ready to Rain,” a song that points to happy days ahead. The sun is shining on Cory Morrow, and Vagrants and Kings is meant for any romantic chasing a springtime boost.
