    I'm Glad Trouble Don't Last Always isn't Luke Winslow-King's happiest album by a long shot, but it feels like his best so far, and finds him expanding his musical horizons without losing any ground along the way. This is a top-shelf exercise in soulful blues with plenty to say to the lovelorn and the satisfied alike.

    The singer’s grainy, everyman voice works beautifully with this often sorrowful material, making it believable and potent.

    LWK doesn't shy away from biting into his heartbreak with gusto, even if his mild-mannered tenor betrays some of his music's much-needed grit.

    Musically, expressive and thematically sound, I’m Glad Trouble Don’t Last Always is as promising a pronouncement as its title suggests.

    On I’m Glad Trouble Don’t Last Always Luke Winslow-King continues to demonstrate his growth as a songwriter and entertainer capable of bringing new energy to time-worn Country Music tropes.

    There are moments of suffering, self-pity and, eventually, redemption throughout the nine tracks, and although there are some missteps, Luke Winslow-King's I'm Glad Trouble Don't Last Always is admirable in its undertaking, and definitely worth the listen.
