Am I late to the Zac Brown & Jamey Johnson party?



Having recently discovered a few ‘new to me’ performers, I thought to enter them here and see of these if anyone can suggest other similarly related musicians, song writers, or bands, performing now.

Those I have run across and liked enough to buy a few of their individual CDs are Jamey Johnson “That Lonesome Song”… Zac Brown Band “The Foundation” & “You Get What You Give”… Reina Collins “Austin to Boston” & “Saltwater Soul”.

Each of these are IMHO related and separate. Gems in their own rights. All completely enjoyable and satisfying.

I’m most curious to find out other bands akin to the Zac Brown, ‘roadhouse’ genre, that are as accomplished and as tight a sound as ZBB has to offer…. ZBB is definitely on time and unquestionably professional with their sound and abilities..

Thanks

Suggestions…???

the guitar song is one my 2010 favorites. if you havn,t listened to steve earl he's great too. thanks john

Previewing the Guitar Song online, I'm not a lot impressed... though it may grow on me still. Music can do that with me... hear it at first and not care a lot for it, then hear it some more and then get interested in it. Not usually but sometimes.

Some of Jamey's tunes makes me feel he's over embelishing things and 'trying to be too too country' with his phrasing.

I do like most of his lyrics though.

I like Steve Earl as well. Is his Jeursalem album his latest bestest? I have Guitar Town, and one with Del McCory..
