I hate when Grady has all my favorite artists on it. Means I’ll never get to see them play live for cheap anymore. Thanks man

@christa526 5 месяцев назад

Prayers for Wyatt. Thank you so much for honoring his gift.

@51Dutchman 5 месяцев назад

Yeah, just read that Wyatt has been going through a hard time with mental health struggles lately. Glad to see he’s being honest about his situation and that people are generally supporting him giving himself the time and space he needs to recover.

@Seneca_creek 5 месяцев назад

Red Clay Strays is the revelation of the year for me. Great voice, great melodies, great lyrics.

@somebodysdog9235 5 месяцев назад

And great band feel! Those guys are tight on another level.

@xchemicalxkilljoyx 5 месяцев назад

Saw Zach Top live in August, didn't know any of his songs, but had a great time for his entire set. Hoping his fan base grows even more, he definitely deserves it

@davidhochstetler4068 5 месяцев назад

Pure 90’s country style

@andya8258 5 месяцев назад

Zach Top is going to be a beast. Love his bluegrass and 90s country style

@mattl165 5 месяцев назад

I won’t attempt to categorize Evan Honer but his music is great. Thanks for mentioning him.

@logical_volcel 5 месяцев назад

he's in the same basket as noah where they straddle the line but get actually write good and interesting songs (unfortunately most of the folk scene is not very good)

@VinceBo 5 месяцев назад

Zach Top is gonna sky rocket this year I just know it! Been listening to him constantly since finding out about him.

@joshuagonzales210 5 месяцев назад

No Vacancy was my number 1 on Spotify Wrapped and what sold me on Treaty Oak's music.

@EddieB.Realtor 8 дней назад

I just got to see The Red Clay Strays at the Troubadour in West Hollywood CA. New to the scene and I’m glad to be here! I discovered them in February of 2024

@jamieaxelrod9627 5 месяцев назад

I saw the Red Clay Strays at The Basement on a Monday night in 2019. I have been waiting for them to get some recognition ever since that night.

@Covshooter556 Месяц назад

Maggie Antone has an entrancing voice, saw her live a couple weeks ago with Kat Hasty at a small venue in GA and they both killed it! Let’s go Magoogs!

Wyatt Flores performed at C2C Festival last month here in the UK. He has such a huge following right now, across all generations of Country fans. ❤

@MidpackMania 5 месяцев назад

OK I CAME BACK TO REPORT! I saw treaty oak revival tonight in CA and honestly it was one of the best shows I’ve ever seen. Crushed every song and sounded amazing. So much energy, crowd in the palm of their hands, perfect setlist. I have to agree that the crowd wasn’t the best type of fan, but everyone singing along was fun to be a part of. Every member also stayed after to sign every piece of memorabilia fans had. Great band, great show. Love seeing them blow up.

@evan7553 5 месяцев назад

I met Evan Honer at xbk in Des Moines, and he walked to the door after the show and took pictures, signed autographs, and talked with all the fans. He deserves nothing but good things

@aking25199 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for your recommendations, Grady! Love your shoutout of Treaty Oak, they were recommended to me by Spotify last year and I love their sound. “Haunted House” is one of my favorite songs by them

@345dane 5 месяцев назад

Love Zach Top heard him for the first time opening for Flatland! Treaty Oak one of my favs rn as well!

@That.97.z71 2 месяца назад

SOOOOO happy to see Treaty Oak getting more and more recognition. The best group coming out of the red dirt scene by far

Great video Grady. I’ve never heard of most these artists, I definitely got some new (new to me) music to check out.

@danielisgro6609 5 месяцев назад

Absolutely love Wyatt Flores and hope he continues to grow! 😎 Solid video Grady! There’s so much content out there it’s great to have some suggestions. A few years ago I used to teach high school and some of my students would ask if they could skip the cafeteria and eat lunch in my room because I’d watch your videos. 😂 They’d stop by in the morning and say ‘New Grady video! Lunch in your class today!’

@titusbc 5 месяцев назад

Red Clay Strays.. just stumbled on them last month and love their sound.

@rjsfarm2534 5 месяцев назад

Not sure how much buzz there is around Ellis Bullard but thats who I’m watching this year. Castellows also will get pretty big this year i should think.

@coffeeguy957 5 месяцев назад

Love Red Clay Strays! Seeing them open for Whiskey Myers! So pumped for that entire concert!

@Ian00003 5 месяцев назад

I saw Wyatt open up for 49 Winchester in July (who I discovered from a Grady video) but on a great show. I doubt I’ll ever be able to pay $20 to go see either act ever again

@cartermorrill6056 5 месяцев назад

I got to see Evan Horner at a tiny venue in Seattle, such a cool experience. I hope he’s blows up even more.

@donaldcollver1720 5 месяцев назад

@AnonymousScout1 5 месяцев назад

Red Clay Strays and Wyatt Flores have been on repeat for a while now. Love them both. Cant wait for Kashus Culpepper to release some music and find himself on this list next time you release a vid like this

@veycaution2149 5 месяцев назад

@edconway8599 5 месяцев назад

Was thinking the same thing but he’s so popular already that maybe he didn’t meet criteria

@beplanking 5 месяцев назад

@@edconway8599 He's definitely talked about him before, with Coal and the album in general so this is probably accurate

@joshuahendrix3755 Месяц назад

Zach Top is hands down the best one on this list!

@samaajamaa 5 месяцев назад

Love seeing TOR in this! I’d love to see more of your opinions on the artists that are in the more punk/ grunge based side of country (Hardy’s rockstar single, Austin snell etc) cause this scene has blown up so much since Koe, love your vids!

I have gone off country star a little bit because I got all the song (not all deluxe though), but to play series of episodes I will be buying this! Soooo good to see Alexandra Kay getting some love. I have been really enjoying her album and how emotional it is.

Um, 🤩 wow!!! I LOVE the Zach guy!!! His music is my favorite 😊

@Mack5895 5 месяцев назад

Good list I'll definitely have to check some of them out! I'm still dying for you to find and talk about John Morgan! I seen him at a country thunder concert in Bristol TN a few years ago before he released an album and only had a few covers and maybe 3 or so singles. He is so great!

@logical_volcel 5 месяцев назад

I really love treaty oak revival singing about the current way of life for a blue collar working away, not another band singing about how it used to be, the divorce, the terrible accomodation, the sleeziness, truly feels lived in

@bronsonhall9122 5 месяцев назад

Been a huge treaty oak fan for well over a year now and I’m loving seeing them finally get recognition! DM’d them on instagram back when they had like 1000 followers and they responded, fan for life.

@clinchfieldns 5 месяцев назад

Zach Top's new single "Use Me" might be the best country release since Whiskey Lullaby.

I hope Corey Kent gets more recognition. He has some really good songs.

@kayleeholt0712 5 месяцев назад

Love wyatt and red clay strays. Someone im watching is sierra ferrell. She has a great appilachian sound and even made a song inspired by the new hunger games "The Ballad of songbirds of snakes".

@GradySmith 5 месяцев назад

I love Sierra!! In my brain she already broke out with her last album -- I think I had it in my Best of 2021 Albums? -- but she's awesome and def still rising!

@rjsfarm2534 5 месяцев назад

Ya, Sierra is getting national Tv exposure and big slots on festivals. She is already huge, but will get larger no doubt

@bobmccurry213 5 месяцев назад

Hope you make it back to laurel cove this year. Wyatt and red clay both are the headliners!

@bdonnellylaw 5 месяцев назад

ALexandra Kay -I admire her for doing this on her own and even self-financing her tour, but we saw her show in NYC. We go to a lot of live country music and I can only think of one other show that disappointed us more. It might have just been a bad night, but her voice and stage personality just weren't there. Her opener, Haley Mae Campbell, in comparison was stellar and saved the night for us.

@stevendudley5687 5 месяцев назад

Zach Top reminds me of Alan Jackson and Brooks &:Dunn and I love Alexandra Kay’s voice! She’s been touring with Tim McGraw

Came here from a link in Country Star, but slightly surprised there was no in-game reward.for doing so. Not a big deal, as have been an avid watcher anyway for a while, but still surprised. All good though 🙂👍

@jessica-xd4ts 5 месяцев назад

I don't usually make comments on videos, but I truly think you should look into Moose Miller. I discovered him a few months back (Where the Wild Things Are) and I've loved every song he's come out with since. I was shocked to see that he only had a few thousand views, he's extremely talented and I believe he could be a big thing.
