“That’s What Leaving’s For”
‘That’s What Leaving’s For’ is an original track from The Country Blues — the new album from Rob Ickes and Trey Hensley. Hensley, a fan of sad country songs, wrote this one and has always been inspired by that music. “The song basically just poured out onto the page. I wrote it in about five minutes and never changed a line. I’m incredibly proud of this tune and I’m glad that we were able to feature it on the record.”
There is also plenty of fun throughout the albums remaining 10 tracks, with covers by Hank Williams, Sonny Boy Williamson, Merle Haggard, Charlie Daniels and more. The Country Blues is a follow-up to the 2015 Grammy nominated Before the Sun Goes Down.
