Song Contest Part XX, Host: Back One Out, Theme: Final Recordings of Bands/Artists That Are No More, Noms Due: Monday, 9pm AEST

I know loads of good modern country artists. Unusual for you to make a generalized comment like that.

Yeah, I should qualify that by saying modern country charts are mainly just pop songs sung by southern accented singers. I blame Shania and Keith. Vomit.

I did find a nice K.U song. Bit of a romantic piece though. Lot of his music is trash.

No, missed out each time. Saw Steve at the Prince of Wales many years ago.

I saw Justin at Bluesfest in 2015, and Steve in 2016. Justin launched into a tirade about modern country music (and it was absolutely glorious).

What are you talking about Ula?? Shania and Keith don't sing in Southern accents!

Yeah, don't really know why they're considered "country".
What I'm trying to say is that any pop/rock song sung with that accent is automatically branded "country". The music itself though is just pop/rock.
To me, old school stuff like Hank Williams is pure country music.

Would love to hear that. Will have to go hunting through his live vids.

I'm not a huge country music fan but I like some alt country music.

I nommed this alt country banga from Escondido which didn't poll as well as it should have.

No that wasn't me, I think I nommed Wilco though who are considered to be alt-country,

Just checked the spreasheet and I nommed this song for the deep cuts round and it got to 6th.




Deserved better, great song.

He was saying that Hank Williams would be spinning in his grave (or something to that effect).
