You know, Country & Western!

This ain't your Dad's country music. It's your Granddad's! None of that new Nashville bullshit either. This is where you'll find what I consider the best in Country (Classic and Alt), Folk, and Americana.

 

What’s in yer ear holes?

Looking to you guys for your favorites in the Americana/Country/Folk or otherwise realm. 

Lemme know and I’ll compile the answers into a playlist.

I’ve got some Ramblin’ Jack Elliott,  Jerry Jeff Walker, Starline Rhythm Boys, Rev. Gary Davis and Doc Watson. Someone bring me into the 21st Century!
