music we love

Allison Moorer: The real deal: the voice, the soul, the story.

Bobby Bare Jr: He’s a strange bird, go on and visit him in Music City.

Corb Lund Band: Coolest Albertan cowboy ever, plus, smart as a pair of starched Wranglers.

Cory Branan: A troubadour for sure. Can spend time in the tall green grass with us any day.

Dale Watson: Too country for country, and we like him that way.

Drag the River - It’s the answer if the question is alternative country. Sounds like country, feels like punk rock.

Hank III: Little bit country, little bit rip-your-face-off screaming punk. Cricket’s future ex-husband.

Jerrod Neimann: The real guy that all guys want to be friends with and all girls want to date.

Josh Ritter: At the intersection between roots and singer-songerwriter, holding down the northwest corner for poetic lyrics.

Kane: They are going to be big. You should be paying attention to them. We are.

Lucero: Bad boys do good music. This is what happens when musical worlds collide.

Lucinda Williams: Real women keep it this real.

Lyle Lovett: What’s to say that just reading his name doesn’t convey?

Old 97s: Like a sunny Saturday morning driving with the top down.

Son Volt: The soundtrack of our youth.

Steve Carlson: You should come around more and hear him play.

Steve Earle: The Bodhisattva of Guitar Picking and Political Righteousness

The Avett Brothers: They fiddled with it, picked at and produced a good sound to hear.

The Jayhawks: It ain’t just music for a rainy day, it’s good music any day.

The V-Roys: Long gone East Tennessee boys, but the music still plays just as good.

Townes Van Zandt: The last hard-core troubadour, you know it.

Two Gallants: Real high lonesome sound, jacked up, broken down and coming to you from the left coast.

Uncle Tupelo: We know they weren’t the first alt.country, but it was a beginning of sorts, right?

Waylon Jennings: C’mon, man. Outlaw. Learn it. Love it.

Whiskeytown: Ryan, you messed up when you left the band.

Willie Nelson: Biodiesel, the tinkle of a bridle, and the whiskey river of our souls.
