I was going through some old casette tapes my parents had. One country group from the 80s-90s had a song that basically said they’d be the last contry band left when the rest turn into pop. I have to track it down again!
New country pop country sucks but I can listen to some Tyler Childers, First Aid Kit or Johnny Cash any day. Like most music the good stuff is out there if you look past the overplayed corporate radio surface
