RootsnRevelry Review

Lincoln Continental is a refreshing blend of nostalgia and heartfelt storytelling. Cartwright beautifully narrates the story of his grandparents’ romance, personified by their old Lincold Continental, echoing his own longing for love. Its simplistic instrumentals, featuring a steady guitar and lighthearted piano melodies, create a feel-good vibe. Just before the chorus, the tune picks up pace to match Cartwright’s lyrics, making it an irresistible summer anthem.

Lincoln Continental is the perfect highway cruising song—the kind of jam where the windows are down, the radio is blasting, the sun is setting, and your mind is reliving it all… possibly getting sentimental?
