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…???

hard to beat the icon john fogerty. he was great at the super bowl or was it the college bcs bowl a few years ago? i read that he got reexcited about playing and would spend all day doing guitar exercises to tune up. this dedication at his talent level is admirable. he said in an interview that before returning to guitar he flew his plane the same way... all the time getting better. when i wrote ccr i was mentioning a band from oklahoma named cross canadian ragweed for anyone interested. great sound and a great band. check them out if you are a fan of americana rock. there is so much music i can not get to. for some others check out itunes radio under country,,,bootlicqour radio or on sirius there is outlaw country. with pandora just type in a name of an artist you like and you will get many new names. before i got flooded with new artists to check out i used imesh for a while. you can listen to almost any cd before buying it. for 8 bucks a month it saved me 100s if not 1000s of dollars. there isn,t much good to come from our celebrity culture but the musicians who are driven to succeed is a great thing.

Pandora lets you hear the whole CD? $8 @ mo?

Great idea if so... and thx for the other's listed here to feret out more music with

... much appreciation.
i use pandora for free to stream a genre i like.. on imesh for 8 dollars a month or a few more for premium you can download the whole cd or a song. millions of em. every once in a while find something that is not available. if you buy then you keep it and can put it on a ipod etc or disc. i just rent the use tho. as long as you keep current with the 8 bucks you can play anything you chose. when signing up look around and see if you can unchoose the social experience part so the annoying pop up won,t tell you there are annoying friends out there. this aspect is worthless but this started as a peer to peer deal before they went legit and is still part of their deal. sound quality is below 200kbs so it is not for the best sq needs. but to preview new things and see if it is worth buying imesh is a good tool.
I recently picked up jamey johnsons Guitar Songs from the library. I may be in the minority here but it sounds wonderful on my system. Rich, warm and a very punchy bass. Am i the only one who feels this way?
