Any country music love here on PH?

Country music may get knocked in the UK, but it's huge in America. I'm off to Country2Country next weekend at the O2 and can't wait!

Anyone else going, or should I run for cover? If you are interested, they're running pop up stages all weekend and I think there's quite a bit of free music to see there. Full line up here: http://www.c2c-countrytocountry.com/event-info/pop...

I'm aiming to see David Nail on Saturday on the Radio 2 stage (O2 Indigo) and Maren Morris on Sunday in their mock up of the famous Nashville Bluebird Cafe.

Looks good thanks, will do a bit more research into that one. Don't mind a bit of folk either and like you, just love going to watch live music. I saw Ludovico Einaudi play at Blenheim Palace last summer, incredible setting.

I'm a big fan of up tempo poppy country songs, currently can't get Josh Thompson - blame it on Waylon out of my head. Dierks Bentley is another particular favourite.

Also a huge fan of bluegrass stuff like Dan tyminski / union station.

Dierks Bentley is coming to the UK next month on tour, I've got my tickets for London for the Apollo on the 22nd April

Will check out Josh Thompson. Dustin Lynch, David Nail, Maren Morris, Chris Stapleton, Eli Young Band and Rascal Flatts are all up there for me. Seeing a few of those at Country2Country next week too!

Will look into this Americana thing, never heard of it before.
