“Damn This Town” by John Hiatt appears on 1 radio countdown from 1 station in 2011. It was first released in 2011 on the album Dirty Jeans and Mudslide Hymns. Its best result is #54 on the WFUV Top 90 Songs of 2011. In the combined RockLists rankings it is the #292 indie & aaa song of 2011.
"Damn This Town" went out as a single in July 2011, just ahead of Dirty Jeans and Mudslide Hymns, the twentieth album from John Hiatt, which New West released on August 2 that year. Hiatt didn't farm out the writing: this one is his alone, words and music, like every other song on the record.
Kevin Shirley produced the album and cut it in Nashville, and it's a set with some range, from "I Love That Girl", written about Hiatt's wife, to "Detroit Made", a car song good enough that Bob Seger later covered it.
