Guys, Valentine’s Day is just around the corner and if you haven’t made any big date plans yet, well… you should probably get on that.

But like the aforementioned musicians, Hyslop’s inspiration is drawn from the people and relationships that surround him, while also subjecting his songs to his own vulnerabilities, doubts, and conflicts. What sets Hyslop apart from the coffee shop crowd of “folk artists” is his faultless...
