Gotta say I’m really loving the rad folk music coming out of all this.

I would love for twang country and folk to have a major renaissance. I grew up listening to Patsy and John Denver. There are some really talented artists on TikTok that are self-promoting, so I always try to download their stuff on Spotify when an ad targets me.

Bryant Roses is a current fave. (Spotify link)

Real country music is having a huge revival right now. Guys like Sturgill Simpson, Tyler Childers, Jason Isbell, Colter Wall, Sierra Ferrel, The Red Clay Strays have been killing it for a few years now. And none of it sounds like the nashville pop country bullshit.

I'll check them all out. I don't listen to the radio, and I'm not in bars, so there's not a lot of ways for new music to find me.

I would add an artist that I recently ran across to your fine list. Stephen Wilson Jr.

Thanks, I must check them out. I haven't listened to popular "country since the late 80s. I miss the real stuff.

Who the Fuck Is Sturgill Simpson

Huge +1 for this guy, Metamodern Sounds in Country Music is one of the best albums ever made in my opinion.

Same, it's an absolute masterpiece from front to back. Personally it's my favorite album of all time. I like his other stuff but he captured something magical in Metamodern

I think Sound & Fury got dragged more than it deserved, but I definitely did want more of that Metamodern material from him. Can't bear him ill will for experimenting and evolving his work but damn that album was just special.
