About Playlist
Country music isn't just a synonym for cowboy hats, banjos and American tradition. For decades many artists have tried to distance themselves from the Nashville scene and develop their own alternative version of the the genre, without forgetting their roots. Here's an overview, from pioneers such as The Flying Burito Brothers to today's groups such as Band of Horses and Okkervil, not to forget singer-songwriters like Neil Young, Steve Earle, Ryan Adams, and of course the alternative country girls, from Neko Case to Brandi Carlile.
