Listen "Alt-Country Primer"
Episode Synopsis
Send us a textIn this episode Nate and Kyle, well... mostly Kyle discusses all things alt country. These are the songs that Kyle feels best represent the alt country vibe. The songs and artists on this playlist are ones that don't fit into your precious genre boxes or your succinct synopses and certainly don't want your country radio airplay, or your increased exposure... or your fandom... or your... money... um... where was I? Listen as at least one of the hosts heaps mounds of love on these beloved songs and is grateful that they chose to follow their muse instead of suckling at the teats of big music and selling out.This week's playlist: Alt-Country Primer Blue – The JayhawksPropinquity (I’ve Just Begun to Care) – Mike Nesmith Cry Love – John HiattEnough – Todd Snider & the Nervous WrecksGimme Back My Dog – SlobberboneNew Madrid – Uncle TupeloTear-Stained Eye – Son VoltPick Up the Change – WilcoAngels – BodeansKerosene – The Bottle RocketsSix Blocks Away – Lucinda Williams Diamonds – VolebeatsWalk it Off – BellwetherStupid Boy – The Gear DaddiesTime & Time Again – Martin Zellar & the HardwaysSalome – Old 97’sIn My Dreams – The HangdogsNo One’s Gonna Love You – Band of HorsesIf Looks Could Kill – Rodney CrowellStraight to Hell – Drivin’ n’ Cryin’Michael Keaton – Ruston KellyIt Ain’t Easy Being Me – Chris KnightMIddle of America – Will HogeShe Left Me For Jesus – Hayes CarllHe’s a Dick – Golden SmogLove Caught Up to Me – Dwight YoakamGoin’ Back to Harlan – Emmylou HarrisI and Love and You – The Avett BrothersDon’t Wanna Know Why – WhiskeytownTwo – Ryan AdamsEvery Saturday Night – VandoliersTraveling Alone – Jason Isbell & the 400 UnitLet’s Kill Saturday Night (Robbie Fulks cover) – 5 Chinese BrothersAnother Song Nobody Will Hear – Will Hoge w/Wade BowenRevival - Jamestown RevivalSupport the Podcast at : Buy Me A CoffeeMusicatarationalvolume.com@MARVpodcast on Twittermusicatatrationvolume profile on Spotify for episode playlists based on topics discussed
