Amazing songs. Any respectable music collection NEEDS a copy of his 'Metamodern Sounds In Country Music' album. It's essential, an instant classic. [Reply]

Are "country" artists who are amazing.
There is good and bad in all kinds of music. Dissing all country music is just as close-minded as dissing any other genre.
For sure. I'm being overbearing. I like whatever scratches my itch. Was a fan of Alabama, some Garth, respect the hell out of Urban's guitar playing. Zack Brown brings it too. I think he'd be a good choice for a SB halftime show.
Country has some real fine songwriting. That's where the writers are, if they are smart. (Source: Dane) [Reply]
