I’ve learned that any European will go balls out for a rodeo. Me personally, I like picking and Americana. Also redneck engineering. Wont lie, sometimes im jamming on some folk or old time country music.
Forgive the title, trying not to confused or offend.
Yeah, there is some good alt country stuff out there. I actually have an old friend from high school who’s gone really far as an indie country star (which is kind of funny because he was totally a punk rocker back then)… I just can’t get into the new stuff though. It just feels like it’s trying to recapture something that’s time has passed. Sort of like the period in the 90s when big band music was briefly back in fashion.
Country music, to me, represents an America that just doesn’t exist anymore. Maybe it never did, but we’re more realistic about things now.
We’re just not in a “Harper Valley PTA” world.
