This week's post delves into a genre I tend to avoid. I think most of it has to do with my upbringing and music I was around growing up. Country was never played so I therefore had no appreciation. I since have developed a fondness and taste for bluegrass and the crossover into folk and country. This week we hone in on some groups that have a unique sound but bring something that is distinctly not mainstream country music.
There is a lot of of bluegrass and folk storytelling through some of the music that resonates with me. In addition they evoke that traditional country twang from time to time. There will be no mention of achy breaky hearts or badonkadonks, so for that, you need to look elsewhere.
There are still cowboy hats and plenty of country to go around, even if some might consider it alternative.
