This week, we're grabbing a pedal guitar, donning our Stetsons and delving into the world of country music! Well, perhaps we aren't being quite so cliché; country music has a surprising depth for a genre that doesn't always allow itself for innovation. We've got classic songs and exciting new artists to share, including Sturgill Simpson, John Prine, Lavender Country and Charley Crockett. Ride with us, won't you?
