Memorial Day weekend and the unofficial start of summer is upon us. This is a great time to dive into some of the best country music coming out this season, and to look forward to some great albums in the offing.

Tired of the daily grind? Worried about the future of country music? Need a honky tonk revitalization? Then there is just about nothing better to get your mind right than seeing Jesse Daniel out on tour.
What if you could see many of these fast rising names all in one place, along with other great names in the country, roots, and Americana realm? That is the experience the Wild Hare Music Festival is offering in Canby, Oregon this summer on July 15th and 16th.

The Texas music and Red Dirt movement is growing. There is no doubt about that. The appeal and participation in the music is no longer regional, despite what the names might imply. It’s just as much of a genre at this point as a collaboration of local scenes, offering a much more healthy alternative to the mainstream of country.
Texas and Red Dirt music isn’t just for folks in Texas and Oklahoma. The title of the music may imply that it’s a regional thing, but the appeal is international, and the talent is world-class. No matter where you are, Texas/Red Dirt is a much more healthy alternative to the mainstream.
