In recent years I haven’t had much use for country music by male artists. Most of it falls under the category of bro country, which really doesn’t do a whole lot for me and pretty much all sounds the same. I can’t tell most male country artists apart these days. I hear their songs on the radio and though I could rattle off most their names I couldn’t tell you which artist acutally goes with which song. Most of the country music I like is sung by solo women or groups with female vocalists. Imagine my surprise to realize that some of my favorite country songs currently in rotation on country radio are by men. It’s been a long time since that’s happened. I don’t really have much to say about the individual songs, but I’m enjoying all of them at the moment and always stop to sing along when they come on the radio.
