Maybe give Cody Jinks a listen? Specifically the songs Vampires and most recently his cover of Wish You Where Here is really good. I like him a lot, his newest album can suffer from sounding samey, but its still pretty solid.
Love seeing Carrie Underwood mentioned. Storyteller is a beast of an album. So disappointed I couldn't go when Sam and Molly Parden came through Sweden.
It definitely borders on the side of alt-country but Phosphorescent's Here's To Taking It Easy doesn't get enough love. Matthew Houck is easily one of my all time favorite songwriters
The vocals throughout are just so pure and lovely. Definitely reminds me a lot of when I first heard Kacey.
I think a lot of people in here would love the new Sunny Sweeney record, which comes out March 10th. Lori McKenna co-wrote a bunch of the songs. Paging @cshadows2887 in particular.
Danny Worsnop is streaming his new album. Haven't listened yet, but just a heads up that the ads on All Music are horrendous haha. Album Premiere: Danny Worsnop, 'The Long Road Home,' With a Q&A
