“Tonight I’m Drinking” by Rob Cunningham feels like an evening shared with good company and no agenda. The song opens with an easy blend of harmonica and mandolin, setting a relaxed pace that holds steady throughout. There’s nothing polished to the point of perfection here—it’s raw in the best way. The kind of track that plays well over dim bar lights or on a quiet porch with friends.
E.J. Ouellette’s instrumental touches lift the arrangement, weaving in and out with just the right amount of flair. Dave Mattacks keeps the beat grounded, letting the rhythm support the mood instead of steering it. Everything about the track feels like it was made with intention—simple elements used well, without clutter.
There’s a lived-in comfort to the whole thing. It’s not a song trying to chase trends. It’s not trying to be anything other than what it is: a good tune about letting go for a night and enjoying a drink or two. And there’s something refreshing in that honesty.
I found myself returning to it a few times without really meaning to. It just stays with you—the melody, the sentiment, the warmth. Make sure to follow Rob Cunningham and drop “Tonight I’m Drinking” into your playlist—you’ll be glad you did.
