I saw the turnpike troubadours tonight in concert. pretty enjoyable from a guy who gave up on country when Kenny Chesney became legit.


I'm jealous.

Sturgill?

You Can Have the Crown.
Turtles all the Way Down.
The Promise.
Long White Line.

Many more.

AS far as Randy Rogers or Randy/Wade(this post) I'd just start with the hits on YouTube then go deeper in to the collection.

This is the correct answer, but I do dig Simpson. Jason Isbell is good, but his fans can get on my nerves. They're the Crossfitters of music listeners.

Big fan of Jamey Johnson. And I agree that there's some hope to be held out for Eric Church.

As far as the "new outlaws" are concerned, Aaron Lewis's (yes, the guy from Staind) country/solo stuff is surprisingly good. I don't think it's an act with him.

Edit: when some of you grow up, you can listen to a good genre like bluegrass.


Bluegrass Junction and Outlaw Country are on my XM presets

And Sturgill Simpson, Jamey Johnson, Tedeschi-Trucks Band are my current go-tos in music for the month.

Church earned some cred with me when he appeared at the tribute to Gregg Allman at the Fox Theatre. He does a solid rendition of Win, Lose, or Draw. Not too keen on his round of Ain't Wastin Time No More, but points for trying.

It's a got damn shame that this guy isn't a household name. One of the most talented guys I've ever heard.
