They Can’t Take the Music is a collection of songs that speaks to the time we are in. While the weight of the world seems to be crashing down on all of us, Can’t Take the Music is a reminder that we survive, we persevere, the music still goes on.

Gerber shows her songwriting range on this record and lives up to the Alt/country genre she places herself in. The songs range from classic country to pop rock, to a folk ballad with soaring strings. Yet, these songs all feel cohesive. They feel like they belong together, with the whine of the pedal steel as a constant through line. They speak to that part of us that wants our struggle to be seen and to be offered some ounce of hope that we’ll get through it.
