There is no, IMHO, Country Music being produced now days. It is unlistenable.

You're just not looking hard enough. There's tons of good guys out there!

Whiskey Myers
Aaron Lewis (Yes, the former singer/guitarist from Staind)
Jamey Johnson - One of the best
Aaron Watson
Chris Knight
William Clark Green
Shane Smith and the Saints
Zane Williams - My favorite current songwriter/singer
Kevin Fowler - Another good older one, but he's still putting out plenty of new stuff
Corb Lund - may be Canadian Country, but he's still better than 99% of Nashville these days
Jason Boland and the Stragglers
Cody Canada and the Departed - bit more pop/rockish, but it's not drunk girls in pickups at the bonfire all the time
Stoney LaRue
Chris Stapleton
Casey Donahew Band - more rockish, but he proves a pretty boy band can make decent music
Turnpike Troubadours - not quite traditional country but good
Randy Rogers Band
Josh Abbott Band
Easton Corbin
Bart Crow Band
Kyle Park
John David Kent
Cory Morrow Band
Wade Bowen
Jon Wolfe
Sam Riggs and the Night People
Roger Creager
Cody Johnson
Eleven Hundred Springs
Jason Eady
Rob Baird
Dirty River Boys
Hayes Carll
Mickey and the Motorcars
Eli Young Band
Brandon Rhyder
Brandon Jenkins



And I'm sure there's several that I forgot, but this should be a good list to get y'all going on finding some real music.

I just got home from seeing Chris Stapleton a few minutes ago. To paraphrase David Allen Coe “if that aint country, I’ll kiss your a$$”
