How You Holding Up, Son? (Long Haul Version)

Описание: How You Holding Up, Son? (Long Haul Version) is a dark, slow-burn 70s-inspired outlaw country road story that follows a lone long-haul truck driver through endless night highways, frozen Canadian backroads, and the quiet battles inside his own head. The song blends raw working-class realism with emotional storytelling — diesel, neon lights, truck stops, hard nights, memories, and regret all layered into one continuous ride.

It’s not just about trucking. It’s about survival. About carrying the past while still pushing forward mile after mile. The long version allows the story to breathe, creating a cinematic journey through loneliness, resilience, and the unspoken brotherhood of people who live their lives on the road.

Built around a deep baritone vocal, minimal vintage instrumentation, and an analog 70s studio feel, the track captures the sound of late-night AM radio, cold engines warming up before sunrise, and the feeling of driving toward something you’re not sure you’ll ever reach — but you keep going anyway.

This track sits between outlaw country, road storytelling, and northern ice-road atmosphere, giving it a raw, authentic long-haul trucker soul.
