I would like to think it is my job as a writer and music advocate to bring fresh new music and faces to your attention — I use the term “underground music” loosely, in the sense that these artists deserve much more attention than they are receiving.

I could give you some amazing bio behind this stellar artist, but his own description really says it all:

"Sturgill Simpson's authenticity stands out like an island of hope in a sea of tacky. Pure and uncompromising, devoid of gloss and fakery. Bonafide mountain hillbilly soul"

Simpson gets back to true country roots, without the extra stuff we have grown to love today. Keep up with Simpson here!
