Austin heartland rocker Rick Hornyak’s new album Dandelion (out July 21) meshes jangly, ringing guitars with introspective and honest lyrics. He challenges notions of toxic masculinity while purging his childhood trauma through the love of his wife and child. His raw and emotive vocals have the familiarity of Tom Petty, the urgency of The Replacements and the alt-country gravitas of Alejandro Escovedo.
