Praise for By My Own Ways
“One of the truly loveliest sounding records released this year… The Brooklyn-based singer songwriter has blessed us with a truly captivating country classic.”
- Holler Country
“Hale’s voice is enchanting, buttery-smooth and timeless, but modern in its unflinching honesty. Hale has an obvious reverence for tradition in her music, but she’s not cosplaying. Her sincerity demonstrates that she lives and breathes this music — and “Drunk On You,” the rare sincere country love song, is evidence of that.” - Adobe & Teardrops
“Once you’ve heard her sing her songs, you’ll always know it’s her… [By My Own Ways] plays like a collection of short stories and bodes well for the future of sad country music.” - Country Cutler
“Not your average easy listening experience but… her material has authority, it’s well-conceived & Marley’s entertaining.” - Americana Highways
“If you’ve been following the surge of incredible women in roots music today, you know the depth of talent, and Marley Hale deserves to be right in the middle of that conversation. One spin through By My Own Ways and you’ll agree.” - Meanwhile in Music
