Let's ramp up this series with a few blog posts in quick succession.
Tomorrow night I will start putting together a playlist for ya'll to listen to :)

I think I really love southern country music because it's in my blood, I have a family line that originated from there so although I'm Australian I still have the south with me.
There is nothing quite like the country, there is something which puts my soul at ease when I'm there. Maybe it's the sweeping plains and sunburnt land, that gives way to gentle rolling hills.
We used to get some wild thunderstorms too, which we just don't seem to get here in the city.

I really like country music because there are many references of living in the country.

Let's look at a few tracks which I really like.

☠️ The Devil Makes Three - Old Number 7 ☠️

 
I really love this track by The Devil Makes Three.
The group comes from Santa Cruz, California.

I really love the way they have done the lyrics, and I guess being a Jack Daniels fan I love this song a little bit more.
The way he sings sounds really good and I really love the rhythm of the track.
That acoustic guitar sounds great as it always does with country music.
 

☠️ The Heavy Horses - Pale Rider ☠️

 
I really love this track by The Heavy Horses.
Another group I regularly listen to when I venture to the country music side of youtube.

I really like the guitar work in this song, and it has a real western cowboy sort of feel to it when you listen to the lyrics.
I really like his weather beaten country sounding voice too.
Songs like this bring out the outlaw side in me :)
 

☠️ Lions - Girl from the North Country ☠️

 
I really love this track by the Lions.
I first heard this song in a sons of anarchy mix I was listening to and fell in love with it.
The group comes out of Austin Texas, and although this has a hard rock sound to it I still think it feels like a country song.

I really love the lyrics to this track.
 

☠️ The Graveyard Train - Ballad For Beelzebub ☠️

 
Here is another track I have stumbled across which I really love.
I really like the harmonica, it's one of my favorite instruments and it's used really well in this track.
I also really love the slower pace to the track.

Some of the lyrics are really cool to like this bit:
"And you can't sing a note for the dust in your throat
We're running on empty and the bands lost all hope"
