iTunes Review
On his 2009 sophomore album, Jason Michael Carroll delivers a down-home yet classy set of country tunes in the manner of a latter-day Garth Brooks. The North Carolina native leans more towards poignant sketches of ordinary life than hellacious party tunes. The importance of family is a reoccurring theme, whether in terms of a separated father’s love for his child (“Tears”), the search for a prodigal daughter (“Hurry Home”), or the struggles of young parents (“We Threw It All Away”). Carroll also sings affectingly of his small-town roots in the buoyant “Where I’m From.” The upbeat Southern rockers – especially “Happened on a Saturday Night (Suzie Q)” and “Barn Burner” – are full of Wild Turkey, smoked pig and barroom fights, topped off with twanging guitars and squealing fiddles. Producer Don Gehman — best known for his work with John Mellencamp — leaves enough rough edges to give these tracks a measure of individuality. Growing Up Is Getting Old is a confident, well-realized release by an artist just hitting his stride.

Points for originality... ZERO.
by JamesLeVox"Hurry Home" is a remake. It's been done before.
Probably The Best Album Of Modern Country.
by NightVermillionEver since Jason Michael Carroll started his carreer and released Alyssa Lies, I have admired him. There's too much power in his songs, and to be fair, I started to like country thanks to Jason Michael Carroll.
This album is just as powerful as the another one. Personally, I think that the song Tears has as much power (well, maybe a bit less) as Alyssa Lies. Every song in this album is simply awesome. The songs that give this album such the power would be Tears and Hurry Home. I simply love the fact that Carroll is a family man and how he shows that through his songs.
Definitely the best country album this year.
Well worth it...
by MusicLoving101Amazing CD! I loved his first cd, but I might love this one more. Some songs are stereotypical country, but all together well worth the money. I can't wait to hear more from this amazing singer!
