Reviews on the Real: ‘Road Dog’ by Jared Daws is a Gritty Anthem for the Highway Wanderer

‘Road Dog’ is a toe-tapping, finger-snapping, and hand-clapping tune full of rhythm.

Southern-based artist Jared Daws has released a new track titled ‘Road Dog.’ This spirited song, which debuted on March 14, 2025, is filled with rhythm that makes you want to tap your toes, snap your fingers, and clap your hands. The track begins with a hauntingly beautiful instrumental guitar melody and evolves into a strong rhythm once the lyrics come in. Jared's vocal delivery gives me chills due to the power of his voice. As the song progresses, a noticeable groove develops, and Jared's vocals become increasingly soulful and poignant.







Once the tempo picks up, it doesn't slow down. I found myself nodding my head the entire time I listened to this song. As the tune begins to fade, the pace slows down, with Jared delivering the final words: "I'm a road dog."





Produced by Pat Lyons of Colter Wall's band and featuring Greggory Garner of Sam Barber's band on bass and Matty Myers of Sierra Ferrell's band on drums, 'Road Dog' celebrates the open road's enduring charm and a traveling musician's life. Rooted in classic country music, it captures the essence of a nomadic lifestyle that resonates with many of us, both musically and lyrically. This is a solid tune you must hear, and I am absolutely in love with it.





Don't miss out on the experience of 'Road Dog.' Stream it today and discover why I'm so enamored with this track. I guarantee you'll love it as much as I do. The official music video is also out today via YouTube. Check it out!
