Really liking this strain that has come out the shadows the last 15 years, the GAF of these artists is really low, which may be inversely proportional to talent
Was surprised that Simpson mentioned turtles all the way down, most backcountry folk won't get that
Neat to think about how quantum mechanics proved it couldn't be turtles all the way down, an infinite regress

Cool that these topics on some other country boys minds
One of the positives of todays technology is that artists can record on their own, bypassing the studio machine, and build grass roots following. There’s some really good music out there if you’re willing to search a little.

Ward Davis is another good one FYI
 
Okay smart***......

Cody Jinks
Tyler Childers
Jason Isbell (yes, the same one that your boy wiped his *** with one of his songs)
Matt Mason
Whiskey Myers
Jamey Johnson
Chris Stapleton
Colter Wall
Sturgill Simpson
Turnpike Troubadors

There's ten easy ones off the top of my head who make your boy sound like William Hung.

Some good ones there and have seen several of those multiple times. It still doesn't mean that Morgan Wallen can't sing or write a song.

As for Isbell, was one of my favorites and had seen multiple times. Threw away all of my shirts and will NEVER listen to him again. Tremendous song writer but a complete arrogant blow hard. I don't do politics with my music.

So much good non radio played Americana/Country music out there.

Music is inherently political, especially folk/Americana (which Isbell decidedly is). You not agreeing with his politics doesn't make him wrong. It just means you have differing outlooks.

All of those are better musically than Morgan but I know him personally and he’s a great guy.

Isbell can eat ****. These people that can sing or are athletic need to realize nobody gives af what they think outside of their profession.
 
Bro, you are super duper BIG mad because I proved you wrong and ain't all ERMAGHERD MERGERN WALLERN, ain't ya.......

(*for the record, that's not a question, it's an observation.*)
Proved me wrong about what? If you really think Wallen is racist because of a word he said while playing around with a friend in his 20’s, you come from a different world than me.

Unfortunately, same here. Saw him multiple times at the Ryman and loved it, had all his stuff. However, turned me off completely when he went in the deep end. I'm with you, don't care what your politics are, but don't beat me over the head.
 
Rucker needs professional help. With a marriage he blew up and living in a bottle, he's become a bad country song.
Doesnt he just hang out at his restaurant all day? Livin' off that SC fame, hanging with washed up celebs in the low country. Prob taking advantage of his local fame and the 100-1 girl to guy ratio.

FWIW - some of you need to do a bit more research on Wagon Wheel. Saw a documentary on it. Dylan wrote and recorded the chorus lyrics and melody. He named it Rock Me Mama.

Ketch Secor of Old Crow Medicine Show wrote the verses 25 years later. One of his band mates had found a crappy bootleg copy of Dylan's recording. Sketch had Dylan check it out and co-author before they released it with Old Crow in 2004. It was later covered by others including Rucker.

The funny part is Johnson City is east of the Cumberland Gap, not west.
The Johnson City line in that song has always bugged me to no end 🤦‍♂️ All anybody has to is switch the "from" and the "to" and it makes it right...
 
Morgan Wallen is incredibly talented as a performer, songwriter, and singer. I'm not sure if he's worked on himself since the public incident - which quite frankly is not the worst thing he's done/rumored to have done... there'sa laundry list of things. But he certainly can be a better person in the future.

Johnny Cash also struggled with questionable life choices and actions. That's not a new thing with country artists.

But yeah, I like Wallen's music and don't like his past behaviors. Jmo
