Rubberband (Charlie Worsham album)

Rubberband is the debut album by American country music artist Charlie Worsham. It was released on August 20, 2013 via Warner Bros. Records. Worsham co-wrote all eleven tracks and co-produced the album with Ryan Tyndell. Vince Gill and Marty Stuart appear on the song "Tools of the Trade".

Critical reception
The album received positive reviews from critics. Billy Dukes of Taste of Country gave it 4.5 stars out of 5, saying that "From top to bottom, Worsham never shows the same style or tone twice in a row, making each cut feel original and exciting. " It received an "A" from Tammy Raugsa of Country Weekly, whose review compared the music to Diamond Rio and New Grass Revival, also praising the lyrics and Worsham's voice, which she compared to Vince Gill. She concluded her review with, "It seems unfair to isolate any one track over another since all stand on their own. They’re laudable as much for their unique nature as they are for their honest-to-goodness goodness." Jeffrey B. Remz of Country Standard Time compared Worsham to Keith Urban, but thought that the softer songs showed more of an original sound. He added that "It may not be particularly new, but it is very well done."
