Is this alt-country? alt-rock? Something else? Whatever. I'm re-posting this link to Quinn Cicala's latest video, "Telephone." If you like it, please boost. If you know someone you think would like it, please share. Thanks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eBrX7fFYdNk

"In a year that has seen just about every facet of the “culture war” flame its way across the commercial country music world while industry insiders drop their jaws in dismay, All Bad transforms those questions into conversation.

In short, this shit needs to burn down."

@ladodger34 Mastodon & Lemmy cross-posting is still a little wonky, so here's the link for the review (courtesy of @verdantsquare).

Filed under things that I was not aware of: Most of the #music that I listen to these days isn't exactly chart topping. When I started listening to #outlaw #country on #siriusxm a few years back, this young man caught my attention.

I had no idea that he was so damned popular with the 20-something crowd. Usually when I go to #americana & #altcountry shows, I'm like right in the median age group. Last night, I was one oldest in the crowd to see Zach Bryan. He was fantastic!

Oh! Now that we can post images again, I can share that the Lyle Lovett show in #RVA on Tuesday night was great! Three hours of performance with some fun banter with the band sprinkled in. Lyle’s voice seems to be not what it once was but his enthusiasm and love for the music shines through. #LiveMusic #AltCountry

ALBUM REVIEW: Ryan Curtis has the gravelly voice of your favorite Americana dude, plenty of songs about hard living and hard partying, but where he stands out is the breadth, depth, and skill with which he and his band play. It Ain't Easy travels in some surprising directions, and you need to give it a spin.

Since my dude @roo_44 was kind enough to mention me on a ‘Folks you followed on Twitter & now Masto’, I figured I’d throw another new #americana #altcountry suggestion.

When I heard ‘Neon Blue’ by Joshua Hedley’ when it was first released, I enjoyed the song. It reminded me of early 90s Garth Brooks. Without early 90s Garth, I don’t think I would have ever listened to the Alt Country & Americana stuff. 1/?

REVIEW: William Matheny's new album That Grand, Old Feeling questions the wisdom of chasing white lines on eternal ribbons of asphalt, all for the fleeting high of performing onstage. But hey – we all have fun, right? And maybe if that’s not all that matters, it definitely counts.

Colter Wall is a gem. #americana #Music #altcountry.

@futurebird I think Adeem the Artist (#altcountry) did a good job with this concept.

“I mean, I never worked the auction block or joined the Christian Knights
Never called someone a racial epithet at a traffic light
And I know we never asked to be born white
We were not taught the world was so goddamn unjust, but it's on us to make it right”

from “Heritage of Arrogance”

I shared this on the #Americana Lemmy group, but this video is so damned awesome that I’ll share it again. The song is pretty great, too. #altcountry #Music #lgbtq #allyship

@ladodger34 Rhiannon Giddens’ PBS show “My Music with Rhiannon Giddens” impressed the hell out of me. I had no idea that she was so damned talented. Her and Jason Isbell together is gold! #americana #altcountry

@ladodger34 To boost this into greater reach, Molly Tuttle is fantastic. #altcountry #americana

@Gurre @LadyDragonfly And #altcountry is still very much punk.
