Scott Southworth had been keeping it country for decades now. We love the way he infuses a healthy dose of humor in some of his music. This is his latest release, and it is stone cold country.

Oklahoma artists have a distinctive style in the same way Texas does, but awesomely different..They are almost always somewhere between Traditional Country, and Americana. Maybe that's why they have their own genre Red Dirt.I love the steel guitar, and tasty guitar licks throughout the album. Check it out.
Artist:Doc Fell
Song:Fragile

Kendall hails from Louisiana, and came up on our radar back in 2018 with his EP "The Traditional Revival". We are really chompin' at the bit waiting for a new EP or better yet, full length album..sigh.. But until that happens here's his latest epic single. Lawd it's George Jones good! Give it a spin.
Artist:Kendall Shaffer
Song:Ghosts
