After 9/11, Country turned from "we are working people" to "My Dad's an oil tycoon and I love the US".
This is where a lot of Americana music comes in ... the online station Americana Boogie Radio has lots of defiant working class songs on it's playlist :-)
Yeah, that’s a good one.
Boot Liquor on SomaFM is full of working people music, with an emphasis on the drinkin and dyin side of the genre.
Boot Liquor is a new one on me, thanks for the tip :-)
that was around the same time local radio collapsed and I heart radio and other conglomerates took over. not long after media ownership rules changed. I don't think it was the artists who changed.
