If you ever imagined what Loretta Lynn’s rags-to-riches story would sound like through a Strokes lens, well, Trixie Mattel’s got you covered. “C’mon Loretta” is buoyant, sunny, and fuzzy, guitars rubbing against one another. Mattel marks through the important story beats with a lemon zestiness. “You took the dizzy road to love / All in, worse or for better / Here we go again, c’mon Loretta,” sings Mattel, sashaying around the tennis court. “Singin’ songs ’bout runnin’ the show, but your heart’ll never let him go.”
