FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
“Short But Sweet”, Petty’s fifth mixtape, uses beats by Brooklyn’s The Stuyvesants,to provide a 70’s funk sound to accompany his lyrical storytelling.
This East Nashville native turns it down a notch, becoming more introspective, while still retaining the bad boy appeal thematic in his previous records. The result of that marriage is a consistent and lyrically lush album,70’s inspired with a very modern Southern hip hop sound.
