I was pretty dismayed when country music devolved into a bunch of long-haired guys with electric guitars, and again when country music swallowed whole the notion of patriotic devotion without question.
Last night, however, country music really confounded me with the performance by new cutie Taylor Swift. It's a wonderful performance, she's truly a gifted performer. But to call her music 'co
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Eddy Arnold, whose mellow baritone on songs like “Make the World Go Away” made him one of the most successful country singers in history, died Thursday morning, days short of his 90th birthday.

Being a musician I’ve always wanted to like all types of music. For some reason country has been the hardest to like and I’m not sure why. My mind thinks the following when I hear country…
‘She likes my tractor…’
‘Another song about drinking…’
‘Jesus is in that song…’
‘Honky-tonk Badonka-donk…’
In one album you have a farmer, a drinker [...]

Country music is not as wholesome as mom and apple pie, according to a new study. Country music is worse for kids than rock music…if you judge by number of alcohol and drug references in songs.
Researchers studied the bestselling songs in several genres from 2005 found that 37 percent of top country songs featured references to drugs or alcohol, compared to only 14 percent of rock songs.
Rap won the bad rap for the all-time worse statistics with a 77% of songs referencing drugs and alcohol.
Singers referred to alcohol and marijuana the most with positive sexual, social and emotional consequences. Yet the physical and legal consequences were negative.
And what about country music and the findings that it often refers to alcohol instead of drugs? “I’m not saying that’s great, but we don’t know if it really makes a difference,” study author Dr. Brian Primack said. “Maybe kids listen to songs with alcohol, and it doesn’t affect them one way or an

The famed country music Bluebird Café was sold to the Nashville Songwriters Association International. They plan to use it as a songwriters’ venue. The Bluebird Café was founded by promoter Amy Kurland and the club hosted performances by virtually every major songwriter in Nashville. It has also attracted music publishers and record label executives in search of fresh talent. Garth Brooks singed to Capitol Records after they caught one of his Bluebird shows. So renowned has the tiny venue become that it was an inspiration for The Thing Called Love, a 1993 film starring River Phoenix and Sandra Bullock, in which singer K.T. Oslin played the club owner.

Arms akimbo and let your feet flow with the beats. You can do the polka or waltz; the beats are on the same rhythm. Country music though founded in the rural areas of the whites in America is now in every music lover’s home around the world.It gained importance with singers like Jimmie Rodgers and The Cater Family and recently by youngsters who have added their own style that make it acceptable by people of different lifestyles. The music is said to have descended by the native tribes of the Southern Appalachian Mountains that moved into South America. There were the Mexican, Spanish, groups from central Europe and the British Isles, as these communities mixed with one another, their customs and traditions were strongly mixed. The traits that were founded between them then lived and became their customs. The Appalachian bands of the 20th century mostly played with the fiddle, banjo and guitar. The other instruments include the dulcimer of German origin, the mandolin from Italy, the A
I know now that reading "slumps" are fairly common after having read the comments on a few of my favorite book blogs when some of you experienced them. But it's been a long time since I've gone into a reading slump of my own, so it's still a little frustrating to me when it happens.
I suppose that I've just been overwhelmed with little time-killers, and really big time-killers, for the last
These are numbers on music sales by Nielsen SoundScan.
It has been a tough summer for country music album sales. In the first half of this year, total country album sales were down 30%. It was the first time since May 2003 that total country album sales dipped below 400,000.
Here are some other stats about country music lately:
Album sales dropped for a seventh consecutive year, however digital sales are up dramatically - 65% over 2005’s numbers.
Rascal Flatts’ “Me and My Gang” (Lyric Street) was the top-selling album by a single artist at 3.5 million. The country trio also registered the year’s biggest sales week, moving 722,000 copies of “My Gang” in the first week of its release.
Pretty impressive. Even though country music sales have dropped or are flat, there are still individual country music singers who are on the rise.

I was looking around Myspace this morning and it’s amazing to see the many amazing country artists out there doing their own thing and getting themselves known — without the major labels. These country singers and bands are making a name for themselves on the web and it’s only uphill from there!
Just to give you an idea on what is out there for talent, I pulled the top 5 unsigned country artists from MySpace:
1. Jessica Andrews - Judging from the number of profile views (over 2 million so far!) and the quality of her recordings available, she’s got a bright career ahead of her. She’s got the looks, talent and ambition — I look forward to following her career.
2. Corey Smith - Now here’s a busy country singer (at least judging by his show schedule on his MySpace page). This “Hard-Headed Fool” lists country influences like Willie Nelson on his site but it is cool to see that he has a great open mind and also has people like

I like almost any kind of music EXCEPT country (and thrash metal and rap that uses racial slurs). The twanging makes my ear drums hurt. Some of the more “getting ready for a party” country (some Shania etc) doesn’t make me throw up in my mouth but I’d never listen to it by [...]
