It is sometimes called Country or Americana, but to me it is "REAL" music. Pat Green, Cory Morrow, Cross Canadian Ragweed, Robert Earl Keen, Jack Ingram, Randy Rogers, and others are artists who are there for the love of the music, not the dollar and it shows. For me it started as fun, but has become a passion..., one listen and you will know what I mean.
