ALT COUNTRY

VA - Alt-Country Round-Up Vol. 01 + Vol. 02 (A Butterboy Compilation) (4 x CDs)

Alternative country (sometimes alt-country, insurgent country, or Americana) is a loosely defined sub-genre of country music and rock music, which includes acts that differ significantly in style from mainstream country music and pop country music. Alternative country artists are often influenced by alternative rock. However, the term has been used to describe country music bands and artists that have incorporated influences from alternative rock, indie rock, roots rock, bluegrass, neo traditional country, punk rock, rockabilly, punkabilly, honky-tonk, outlaw country, folk rock, indie folk, folk revival, hard rock, R&B, country rock, heartland rock, and Southern rock.

Here are the first of 2 Volumes, each 50 Tracks, of Alt Country songs from my collection. Some new, some old, some you know and some you may not know. But as always, some of my favorites. Enjoy!

Presented here are both volumes (previously posted) in one place.
