You see some beasts playing clean country Telecaster tones on TG4's Glór Tíre. Effortlessly breaking out face melting solos in the background.

I used to find myself watching Glór Tíre a lot- because of that very reason

This is just great. I've been listening to her live and solo stuff over the last few years but this album with a full band, backing vocals, and big production is just amazing

How do you relate to country music on a cultural level @therealjohnny? Sincere question.

It's just folk music really. Songs about the human experience.

Right, but the proudly white rural American experience is not one I would be drawn to in this day and age.

I find that a very odd take. The contemporary american country musicians I listen to all appear to be decent people, far from the right wing Christian stereotype

I am sure you’re right, but all told it is still the most right wing, reactionary, conservative mainstream music genre by some distance.

Modern crossover country stars are all camp as christmas lefty types.

Also traditional ones are too to a fair extent.

But I'm not denying pickup truck christian country is the chewing material of american radio or anything though.

Black metal surely is more extreme? Far right politics and all that. (and yea I know #notallblackmetallers, etc etc)

Anyway, nice to see in this video that the musicians aren't just standing around looking bored, phoning it in in a studio. And the music is all the better for it.
