2024 release, the debut album from the Texas-based singer-songwriter. Flowers & Liquor is the debut album released by American singer-songwriter Hayes Carll. Although it was not initially distributed widely upon it's original release in 2002, it garnered plenty of critical praise, including American Songwriter's claim that the album "suggests the young Texan might be the next great songwriter from a state full of maestros." His clever, irreverent lyrics and sharp observations combined with his warm Texas drawl make his stories and anecdotes as compelling and entertaining as his songs.
