Niet zo sterk als haar twee eerdere singles, maar de Canadese Noeiline Hofmann blijft me bekoren. Ditmaal met een vrij 'gewoon' countrynummer dat vlotjes mijn oor in sluipt en zich daar zachtjes nestelt. Het blijft leuk./

Of the song, Hofmann shares, “It’s about a love or cycle you can’t let go of, for better or worse. If you’ve spent any time around a roughie, rodeo cabaret or round pen you might find some you’ve seen this story with your own eyes.”
“Rodeo Junkies” is the latest track unveiled from Hofmann’s anticipated debut EP, Purple Gas, which will be released October 18 via La Honda Records (rescheduled from original Oct. 4 release). Already receiving widespread critical attention, Rolling Stone praises, “Hofmann plays her shows with a commanding stage presence that blends charisma with confidence, and sings with a commanding voice…it’s hard to ignore Hofmann’s potential in country music,” while Billboard declares, “a uniqueness that is making Hofmann an artist standing out in a crowded crop of newcomers.”
