Both Kinds of Music

You know, Country & Western!


This ain't your Dad's country music. It's your Granddad's! None of that new Nashville bullshit either. This is where you'll find what I consider the best in Country (Classic and Alt), Folk, and Americana.

ITEM! Something on your mind? Requests? Deep personal revelations? Ask away!

ITEM! Meet me in "real life" at my other tumblr, Executive Contour.

ITEM! Mixtapes! Check 'em out and share with yer pals:
Twang/Twinge of Love
That Christmas Spirit
No Permanent Address
No Permanent Address 2
5,000 countryandwestern Fans Can't Be Wrong
Valentine's Day for Lovers
Valentine's Day for Losers

ITEM! Always looking to post songs from up & coming bands who play awesome twangy/folky/hillbilly music. Send 'em my way.

ITEM! For a different kind of musical experience altogether visit A Swingin' Affair - pop music from bygone days.
