The debut single “Top Shelf” by Anna Dahl commands attention through its memorable tune and the unyielding confidence it exudes. The artist from Wisconsin fuses the raw appeal of country with rock intensity to deliver a sound that feels both recognizable and innovative. The initial verse establishes an unmistakable tone of self-assurance. The song doesn’t deal with heartbreak or longing because it focuses on self-worth and refusing to accept anything less. The song’s lyrics depict a woman who confidently embraces her strength and selectivity while celebrating her sense of pride. Her declaration that she needs more than a cheap beer to capture her attention rings true.
Legendary producer Don Miggs who worked with Dolly Parton and Cowboy Mouth produced the track which was recorded at Sound Emporium Studios in Nashville. The high quality production is evident in “Top Shelf” where sharp and steady guitars work alongside driving drums while Anna’s voice stands perfectly centered delivering a clear powerful sound with strong personality. Her performance goes beyond singing because she embodies every word that she sings. And that comes from experience. For many years, Anna has maintained her stage presence while rejecting a significant offer from a major record label because she chose to remain authentic to herself. Her depth of experience enables her to deliver every line with complete confidence.
“Top Shelf” marks only the start of something much bigger. As the first track released from Anna’s upcoming EP, “Top Shelf” hints at what’s to come by demonstrating the project’s full scope of energy, honesty and fun. This track inspires you to open the car windows and sing along with your friends who appreciate its worth as much as you do. Anna Dahl wants people to notice her presence rather than blend into the background. “Top Shelf” shows exactly what Anna Dahl aims to achieve.
