Country music, like all other genres, is subject to Sturgeon's Law, but when you run into one of those songs which falls into the good 10%, you're in for a treat. The new single by country (or is it alt-country?) artist Caitlin Rose is fantastic. All I can say is, "What a voice!" I imagine you'll be just as smitten as I was when you hear this melancholy but sweet number:
I hope this becomes a big breakout single, but the Balkanization (WTF, Google spellcheck?) of radio may keep it off the "rawk" or "pawp" stations. Sturgeon's Law obviously applies to radio here in the 'States.

THAT, my ill-begotten friend, is a VOICE...

Haven't thought about that band in ages. I've long been a fan of "alt country", which is so, so, so much better than mainstream country.
It's country music day in the bloogerhood!

I can barely tolerate country music but once in awhile, there is an exception. This is one of those cases. Indeed! She has a lovely voice. :)
