George Strait....he seems to be favored by both old-school and modern fans of country, and he is (in my opinion) the best country music singer in the past 30 years, delivering consistent quality on every album.
As far as new artists, try to find YouTube clips of Gabe Garcia...young guy out of Texas who is phenomenal in his music. To me, he should be a BIG star instead of playing bars in Texas

I don't know if you have a Sirius radio but they have Willie's Roadhouse and Outlaw Country both 2 stations you could learn a lot from. I know back in the day at least Hillbilly Jim used to have a show on Outlaw.

Let us not forget women: Loretta Lynn Patsy Cline Emmylou Harris Tammy Wynette And, of course, The Queen: Dolly Parton And no one has said Alabama in lieu of naming hipster people that no general historic country fan yet acknowledges, so I think I'll cue up the Simpsons grandpa gif and be seeing you all.

I need basically the best of ghe best old school, where to start with current country, and if there are any upcoming country releases I should know about I just realized of all the genres I dive into, it's country I have the least knowledge on Get the book Honky Tonk Heroes by Billy Joe Shaver and explore along with the book. It'll give you a proper context and let you know what to listen for and appreciate. This book is actually pretty hard to find but I ordered it and now waiting for it Listening, finally, to the YT links in Spiteful Crows post

Yeah, but no one's made the "Just listen to all the songs backwards- that way, he gets his wife back, his car back, his dog back, his home back, his kids back" joke yet, so take what you can get.
