  "Despite reports to the contrary, alt-country is not dead in the Midwest, and Corndaddy is here to prove it.Corndaddy is a Michigan-based band who blend a country-influenced twang, a power pop band's love of hooks, and a rocker's passion for the backbeat on their second album, Better Days.The band's greatest asset is the fleet-fingered lead guitar work of Kevin Brown, whose sharp, wiry lines sound like the work of a souped-up Roger McGuinn, especially on "Better Days" and "Rainbow on a Girl," while drummer Will Stewart and bassist Jerry Hancock make for a lean and emphatic rhythm section and Jud Branam's reedy vocals are a great fit for this material.
