Fight Like a Girl (Bonus Track Version)

Fight Like a Girl (Bonus Track Version)

Shepard and Kristy Osmunson’s harmonies here are athletically flawless, and with a solid quiver of Music City’s A-list tunesmiths, these songs are catchy, commercial-friendly numbers that confidently pull off semi-twangy rock (“Arizona”), tear-in-beer…er, merlot…balladry (“Thank You”), and womanly empowering lauds (“Just Fine”). The collaborative chemistry between the two singers is especially noticeable in those moments where they let loose with humorous themes and good-time inspiration. “19 and Crazy” is pure Nash Vegas country pop with smile-inducing lyrics that self-deprecatingly poke fun at aging with a pierced bellybutton and a butterfly “tramp stamp” tattoo. And the country-rocking “Karma Is a Female Dog” is all kinds of cute, but it also plays with a tough-girl cool that Gretchen Wilson would drink to. Covering No Doubt’s “Just a Girl” may seem a bit predictable on paper, but Bomshel honky-tonk it up with fiddles replacing the guitar leads as the duo cleverly turn a grrrl anthem into well played cougar irony, à la Jenna Maroney.
