Sturgill Simpson‘s style has been met with critical favor and frequent comparisons to outlaw country.
Simpson cites Merle Haggard, Willie Nelson, Keith Whitley, and Marty Robbins as large influences on his music. However, Simpson is also frequently compared to Waylon Jennings, and his style to the outlaw country genre of country music.
Waylon Jennings’ son, Shooter Jennings says, “Sturgill isn’t imitating at all, and he sounds like my favorite era of my dad, the Seventies, when he would sing quieter and more conversational. That’s what struck me about Sturgill from Day One. And still does.”

Country Music Television suggested that Sturgill Simpson has “a voice that recalls Merle Haggard guitar licks that bring Buck Owens to mind.”
His discography includes seven studio albums, six singles, and ten music videos.
