Being from Texas, I have a soft spot for country by default. I see everyone's already posted Lucero, so I'm just gonna throw some stuff out there and see what sticks, and if you don't like it that's okay because I got a gift receipt so you can just take it back and get whatever, like with that sweater grandma got you last Christmas. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LASeB3628v8 Austin Lucas - Go West. This is the song that got me into him. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zgd-tkjxQ94 Goddamn Cross Canadian Ragweed. Everyone should know this song by heart. Turns out they're not from Canada. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z8PmwN-cVf4 More Cross Canadian Ragweed https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_13K_-Wa7aQ Bart Crow - Saw these guys at a lovely country bar and had this song stuck in my head for a month afterward. Was also real drunk. Country is drinking music. Turns out I worked a local music festival for a small (think sub 1800 population) town and these guys were there. Got to hang out with them some but there was free beer because I volunteered to work and I don't remember a lot of it. And I'll end with some... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJWnIFlYKjs Pat Green. Song was HUGE, at least in Texas. e:NSFW Comedy Option - The Rodeo Song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X5JSUUTO_9I invision fucked around with this message at 01:54 on Aug 30, 2012 |

So I added Austin Lucas on facebook. Messaged him a few days later and asked for chords to "Life I've Got", and dude messaged me back 5 minutes later with chords and a complete run down on the song. That's one cool motherfucker. Also he's about to start a US tour to support his new album, which, although not my favorite Austin Lucas thing, is still pretty drat good.

Josh Abbott kicked so much rear end live. And then they closed with Calling Baton Rouge. Seriously a great great show.

El Miguel posted:New Ray Wylie Hubbard record's been out for a while. It's good - titled The Ruffian's Misfortune. I don't recall seeing it mentioned. The new James McMurtry is also real good. Can't think of a song from it off the top of my head, but have a listen to one of his older songs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ieOfuEnToTc As a Native Texan(tm) it really bums me out that we don't get a lot of texas country coming through Portland. Saw Wade Bowen and Josh Abbott a while back though. Tried to make it down to LJT Fest, but work prevented me from making it. Have some Creager while we're here too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bIA9F0faxj0

Dunno if I've posted this before, but Austin Lucas has been, hands down, consistently the best shows I've been to. Usually super small crowds, dude is super personable, talks to everyone throughout the entire show, then unplugs and plays the last few songs in the middle of the crowd, off the stage, and it's amazing every single time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pNxzaWJVULw fake e: He can also play the hell out of that guitar.

Acrolos posted:SInce you've seen him live a few times, I have a question. What kind of accent does he have? I love his music for the most part, but his accent when singing will drive me insane at time, because it sounds like he is forcing a southern accent that (at least on the surface) it sounds like he doesn't have. I won't say that he kind of hams it up at times, but the large majority of the time it's pretty natural. He has a weird not-quite-southern twang/accent.

Ya'll are dumb if you don't go to a Turnpike Troubadours show if you have the chance. Saw them last night in Seattle, and the entire crowd knew every.single.word. The band was amazing, the crowd was amazing, the whole goddamn experience was, without a doubt, 1 million percent the best concert of any genre I've ever been to, including festivals.

HenryJLittlefinger posted:I'm thinking real seriously about buying some advance lift tickets for that weekend. I bet there will be some drat good supergroups happening what with the Cody Canada/Reckless Kelly/Micky and the Motorcars all being there together. Yeah, it's gonna be awesome. There's also usually an after-hours hotel get together where a lot of them just hang out with acoustic guitars + fiddles and jam and get hammered. For everyone that doesn't know, that's basically THE list of red dirt/texas country bands. A lot of bands from that list are very very well known in Texas/Oklahoma. Also shame on you for sleeping on Turnpike Troubadours! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uTYq66Tx1GY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3jGkqcvR80 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lLZlufKuaQ e:I might have an extra hotel reservation. I'll know in like 2 weeks whether it's taken or not.

stealie72 posted:I foolishly just tried to listen to Spotify's "New Boots" up-and-coming country playlist. It's not necessarily what's posted in here, but it's red dirt/tx/etc country. https://open.spotify.com/user/whomikebishop/playlist/2IBUmeJVUpLtrOJK4Epzx7 I had kind of a happy song -> sad song playlist sort going, but it got screwed up and I'm too lazy to deal with it. Some of it is a lot better than others, but I think it's pretty decent.

HenryJLittlefinger posted:Somehow I've missed out on the Turnpike Troubadours all these years and am making up for it by listening to all the albums twice today. Definitely go see them live if you get a chance. They're one of, if not the best concert I've been to.

Steamboat Music Fest Trip Report Day 2: It's loving awesome. Also got to witness Turnpike Troubadours show last night... Evan Felker couldn't remember the words to his songs or play his instruments. Dude was *out* of it, bad.  Cory Morrow killed it though, as usual. If you've ever thought about coming, you absolutely should. Amazing place, amazing festival, and pretty awesome people.
