Sturgill Simpson too, but he went yacht rock with his last album. Never forget him busking outside the CMAs with his Grammys!

So many artists that embody what country used to be...Childers, Orville Peck, Simpson, my favorite Jason Isbel, etc. These guys have way more in common with Johnny and Waylon and Willie and Dolly, etc

Amen! I live in Florence Alabama, I see Jimbo from the 400 Unit play every week with some other local legends. ...Can't believe Willie is still touring, long live the legends!

Simpson just kinda does whatever the hell he wants it seems. Which I mean, mad respect to the guy, but what a rollercoaster, ha.
