Son Stone spreads humor with “Jelly Ain’t My Jam”

Son Stone (Ben Diamond) reminds you that Country music has not yet gone out of style with the new release “Jelly Ain’t My Jam”. The award-winning songwriter, poet, and humorist packs his cutting wit and determination into a ditty that’s half-front-porch tale, half-barroom confession. The track has the crackle and charm that gets you leaning in to listen close, listening close enough to make sense, but also a little too hard, laughing at least as diligently as those still out around midnight with Tom Waits and John Prine.

The song begins with a swagger, a cheeky sway that insinuates that you’re about to hear a story worth hearing. Lyrically clever and bursting with personality, “Jelly Ain’t My Jam” turned over a few times and then delivered with a wink. Stone’s songwriting shows through in his knack for making everyday utterances seem timeless or uniquely his.

The song combines rootsy textures with just a bit of determination, keeping things loose but not aimless. It’s that kind of groove, the one that sounds as if it has been played by people who are familiar with both heartbreak and humor. There’s nothing affected about it, just an effortless, lived-in groove that clings to your boots. “Jelly Ain’t My Jam” is a reminder that wit and wisdom haven’t been cast out of country music.
