Billy strings, sturgill simpson
Sierra Ferrell is another great one, she does some songs with Billy Strings.
Trampled by turtles, the devil makes three
I love The Devil Makes Three
Went to a show w/ a friend, didn't know what I was getting into. Billy Strings had me dancing my ass off and I mostly don't like country music. It's all about when they they're just jamming, it's incredible.
I love the jamming too! The grateful dead/jerry garcia started out with a more bluegrass sound, which apparently is what the jammy nature of their music was inspired by. See the hart valley drifters
Ya I love the Dead, especially when they play the trippy less structured (my old Deadhead friend says it's called "space")
I like it! This is Jerry pre-Dead?
I think so, I found them from reading something about the history of the dead
Billy strings is hella talented.
It's somewhere on the bluegrass<>country spectrum I wouldn't really call it country music.
It's definitely not the first thing people will think of when you say "country", but it goes hard and definitely has more rural/smalltown/backwoods roots so I think it counts as a subset of country
Id argue bluegrass is a subset of country
Technically true but nowadays someone will say they like or don't like country it could mean almost anything lol. But when it comes up I presume modern pop country.
I wish radio stations felt that way too so they'd play some decent shit instead of pop garbage.
