      @@that1guy899 which is exactly why I don't listen to the radio anymore. there has however been a resurgence of incredibly talented artists. you just have to look for them, we have Colter Wall, Zach Bryan, Tyler Childers, Drayton Farley, Charles Wesley Godwin, Benjamin Tod who is or was, I don't know if he still is a member of the lost dog street band, there's nick shoulders, Colby Acuff, Oliver Anthony and many others. I believe we are at a turning point in the music industry where people are starting to get tired of the cut and paste, corporatized bullshit that we've been stuck with for the past one or two decades, that combined with the fact that its becoming easier and easier for this sort of artist to not only have a large platform to perform on, but make a living off of their music gives me hope that we will see actually talented artists take the mainstage in the near future.
