New music?
We get asked from time to time what we think about the country music that is popular these days. I’m a fan. I’d say with this new wave of country I’m more of a fan of the genre than I have ever been. Probably the biggest reason is that the sound seems to be pulling from other genres to create a unique sound. Bro Country has it’s obvious detractors but I point to a group like Zac Brown Band. Their new album Jekyll + Hyde is great. He has a single that is making waves in the rock work and their latest on the country side seems right out of Motown. Other newer artists I like are Old Dominion and Chris Stapleton. Old Dominion is a group of Nashville song writers that are doing their own thing and Stapleton is an accomplished song writer as well. Country is a bit all over the place…and I like it!
