I feel like nobody gives kameron Marlowe he respects. I know he hasn’t dropped an album yet(which he just announced the release date) but with the little bit of music he’s released has been astonishing
So happy to see 49 winchester on the thumbnail for this -- before even watching! Great band have been playing them nonstop for a few years now. Fortune favours the bold is a great progression on their sound and, just like III, is great listening from start to finish. Edit: just got to this part of the video. Damn darling is a personal favouite at this stage - feels like indy Garth. Please, please, PLEASE check out their last album, III.
DUDE when you said "new band you probably haven't heard of" I instantly thought of Low Gap and sure enough, it was. Love Mockingbird. Found them on TikTok.
My favorite love concert I’ve been to was Randall King here in montana he is so energetic and he gets into it with the crowd it’s just a fun honky tonk country concert where you go to have a drink sing songs and go crazy
Ian Noe & Miranda Lambert are the ones that have delivered the most for me thus far. Kaitlin Butts’ album was also really good! I really want a whole album from Mae Estes. Of the three songs I’ve heard so far she’s batting 1.000.
Unrelated to the vid but I wanted to say thank you Grady. Saw Flatland Cavalry in Asheville, NC a couple weeks ago and it was the most incredible show I’ve ever seen, such an amazing experience and atmosphere and I loved every second of it. I never would’ve found them or Zach Bryan or CWG or Turnpike or so many others of my now favorite artists if I hadn’t found your channel. So thank you.
Mine (albums): 1. Kaitlin Butts - What Else Can She Do? 2. Michaela Anne - Oh to Be That Free 3. Ian Noe - River Fools and Mountain Saints 4. Stacy Antonel - Always the Outsider 5.

The Wilder Blue - Thank you for that one! I found "The Ol' Guitar Picker" and The Kingsnake and the Rattler" - great songs! And some more ... I am thankful for your videos - good work!
I heard Gus Johnson of Low Gap at my State FFA convention in person. He is very talented and I flipped out when you brought up his band. Gus is also only a junior and they write their own songs.
long neck way to go was sent to radio about a month down in australia and has been in the top 5 ever since, also jon pardi needs to make a 40 song long trucking album
@@user-uw5vs4jq9v yeah it was definately a midland song ft. jon pardi, but still easily something he would have made, plus he has a unique voice, if thats one way to put it, its nasaly and reminds me of early slim dusty songs
So many GREAT albums on this list. My top 10 so far this year.... 10 Jackson Dean - Don’t Take Much 09 Jamestown Revival - Young Man 08 Adam Hood - Harder Stuff [feat. Miranda Lambert] 07 Brent Cobb - When It's My Time 06 Bryan Martin - Self Inflicted Scars 05 Jelly Roll - Son Of A Sinner 04 The Dead South - We Used to Vacation 03 Aaron Watson - Unwanted Man 02 American Aquarium - All I Needed 01 Arlo Mckinley - Stealing Dark from the Night Sky
Molly Tuttle's Crooked Tree will never get the attention it deserves, but what a gorgeous album, and I would put the title track up against any song released this year. If you ever get the chance, go see her live. I saw her open for OCMS last year, and I could not stop staring at her hands playing the guitar. What an unbelievable musician!
I know I've DM'd my man's Grady multiple times about Country coming Down by Paul Cauthen. It's so raunchy in such a good way. I wish we'd get some Grady coverage!
I had never heard of Orville Peck before a review of him you did a couple of months ago when I immediately became a fan. Since then, I've purchased all of his music and play it constantly. "Let me Drown" is my hands down favorite, though there is not one song I dislike. The last time I purchased any other artist's album would be Miranda Lambert's "The Weight of These Wings." Before that would have been something in the 90's like Tanya Tucker. Keep up the good work you do. Don't get discouraged. Make all those dreams in Nashville come true.
“How the Might Fall” is such a great album. For pre-release songs, Arlo McKinley’s “Stealing Darkness from the Night Sky” and Whiskey Myers’ “John Wayne.”
Miranda has tons of hits obviously but I've noticed alot of my favorite tracks on her albums are the closing tracks like dark bars on wildcard the lyricism that woman has like there is a reason she's regarded as a superstar God like Im gonna probably make an entire video on the genius that is miranda lambert
What are your thoughts on kameron Marlowe? He just announced that hes gonna release an album in about two months and personally I love his work. Maybe you’ve talked about him and I’ve missed it though
Grady, you never got around to Brett Eldredge's "Songs About You" -- the song or the album -- in the first half of the year. I really like the song and am frustrated that it's not catching on at radio in the same way we both were frustrated about "Sunrise Tells the Story." Are you not impressed enough, positively or negatively, with Brett's recent work to even do a review?
The rain delays had nothing to do with the way the crowd does. His fans are devoted and all love him and his music for the help they give that therapy never could do. I am one for sure
Hey Grady! I thought I'd mention an underrated artist that I haven't seen you mention yet, could be an idea for your next video! Adam Harvey is an Australian artist and below are some of the songs I grew up with, I'd highly recommend checking them all out. Most of his songs from the 90s and 2000s sound unique and not cliché like some other artists out there. • The House That Jack Built • The Older I Get • Beauty's in the Eye (of the Beerholder) • I'm Doin' Alright • Genie in the Bottle • Workin' Overtime • She's Gone • Little Bitty Thing Called Love • Gypsy Queen • The Shake of a Hand • When Lonely Met Love • Love Bug Let me know what you think! Thanks 🤠
A few of my 2022 favorites so far: Habits & hearts by Jimmie Allen-as much more of a Jimmie fan than you’ve been, his new album wasn’t my favorite, but this is a great song that wasn’t written by him but that he related to his dad’s struggles with addiction, so it feels a lot more personal than some of his other stuff Also love Jimmie’s Down Home, probably one of my favorite’s he’s ever put out along with Habits & Hearts If I can lose you by Lauren Mascitti-on American idol a few years ago, great song with an awesome classic country sound Red bird by Hunter Girl-you checked out another song of her’s in one of your videos about buzzy country artists, great song about someone in a rough moment in their life needing a sign from someone in their life who has passed away Seventeen by Tyler Braden-appeared on the show “American song contest” this year, really great to listen to song about growing up Also even tho they came out in ‘21, damn strait and the waiter by Scotty McCreery are two songs that I still really love from that album. Honestly that entire album is something I still keep coming back to, I just love the overall sound of it, even tho a good amount of the songs on there are fairly pop country sounding. His voice is just so great to listen to. Also got to go to a Scotty McCreery concert this year, he is such a good live performer with a great voice live, highly recommend seeing him if you can. King Calaway and Tenille arts were his opening acts, and both were great live as well
Haven't heard anything from you on Scotty's Damn Strait single. Soon to be his 5th #1 in a row. This song is real classic country music and his album Same Truck is so good!
Have you still not ever listened to the Steel Woods yet?!? They’re criminally underrated. I could be wrong but I don’t recall you ever reviewing any of their albums
Thoughts on the country tracks on Carrie Underwood's 'Denim & Rhinestones'? Particularly the beautiful 'Garden' as well as 'She Don't Know', 'Velvet Heartbreak', 'Hate My Heart' and the barn-burner 'Poor Everybody Else' ?
Never heard of the majority of those artists. The only country albums I've listened to this year are Stereotype by Cole swindell, and Blue in the sky by Dustin Lynch. I dont listen much to the new country music 2020 is when I stopped listening to the radio now I just listen to country on RUclips music.
I'd love to see you cover Every Girl That Got Away by Emerson Drive at some point. (Or any of their stuff really, I personally enjoy it but never see anyone mention their songs.)
For albums I would put Chris janson all in, Luke combs growin up, Ernest flower shops, Jason Aldean georgia, Cole Swindell stereotype, Joe Nichols good day for living, Dustin Lynch blue in the sky, Brett Eldredge songs about you, and more.
Grady, have you checked out Drake White yet? Dude is criminally under the radar. I'd love to hear what you think. He's not pop country, not Nashville country, but really soulful.
Just found out that Rhett McLaughlin, co-host of Good Mythical Morning, has released the first single in his solo country music project James and the Shame. Song is called “Believe Me,” and I would be super interested in what you have to say about it.
As someone who has listened to the Zach Bryan album a million times, tishimingo is the first song that really grows on you, but level 2 is "someday"(Maggie's)
My favorite song from American heartbreak is’68 fastback especially (I cleaned up my pistons running on 91) or the good I’ll do or sober side of sorry or she’s alright or no cure especially when it says “I’m living proof that Highway boys don’t dieeee” or billy stay or younger years or happy instead especially the ending
Hahaha I think it's v good, but I def don't think it's changing the sound. I do love that it feels a little less like dress-up country music this time around.
Tishomingo is an ear worm. There’s a more fun, less family friendly term for it, but ear worm works! Top five on the record from the start.
Facts, it’s one of my favorites on there
Worm was Crazy Horses dads name, though I believe Crazy’s dad was a white man. lol 😆 fun fact.
Tishomingo was my favorite song off the record from the get go, from the beginning chords to the line “where do good men’s dreams go”
I fell in love with it after the 8th or 9th album listen 😂
Definitely one of my favorites from that album
We are honored Grady, absolutely honored.
Great song. Keep it up man. 💚From Assam
Glad to see Randal King more and more in your videos!
My top 3 albums rn
American Heartbreak - Zach Bryan
Fortune Favors the Bold - 49 Winchester
Chicamacomico - American Aquarium
Gotta love 49 Winchester
I feel like nobody gives kameron Marlowe he respects. I know he hasn’t dropped an album yet(which he just announced the release date) but with the little bit of music he’s released has been astonishing
Girl on fire is a top 5 song this year
I really love her steady heart. Beautiful song.
Sounds like I gotta dive in
@@GradySmith For sure! Kameron Marlowe is slowly becoming one of my favorite artists.
Loveee Kameron Marlowe
So happy to see 49 winchester on the thumbnail for this -- before even watching! Great band have been playing them nonstop for a few years now. Fortune favours the bold is a great progression on their sound and, just like III, is great listening from start to finish.

Couldn’t agree more about “how the mighty have fallen” ….that’s such a great albun
I had a very similar experience at a Parker concert in Nashville.. waited about 3 hours in the rain and the atmosphere after was unreal.
DUDE when you said "new band you probably haven't heard of" I instantly thought of Low Gap and sure enough, it was. Love Mockingbird. Found them on TikTok.
My favorite love concert I’ve been to was Randall King here in montana he is so energetic and he gets into it with the crowd it’s just a fun honky tonk country concert where you go to have a drink sing songs and go crazy
Very glad to see you added Human at the end of that. I really feel like that album has so much to offer with a great wave of emotions
Oh my gosh so on point with Carousel ...I cant stop listening
Ian Noe & Miranda Lambert are the ones that have delivered the most for me thus far. Kaitlin Butts’ album was also really good!
I really want a whole album from Mae Estes. Of the three songs I’ve heard so far she’s batting 1.000.
Highly agreed on Mae Estes! Love her voice, and songs!
River Fool is so good love Ian Noe
Unrelated to the vid but I wanted to say thank you Grady. Saw Flatland Cavalry in Asheville, NC a couple weeks ago and it was the most incredible show I’ve ever seen, such an amazing experience and atmosphere and I loved every second of it. I never would’ve found them or Zach Bryan or CWG or Turnpike or so many others of my now favorite artists if I hadn’t found your channel. So thank you.
Mockingbird has been stuck in my head forever haha
i’m not sure what rock i’ve been living under, but molly tuttle is incredible. i wont be turning this album off for a while. Thanks Grady!
See her live. She'll have you in the palm of her hand in no time.
Glad to see some love for 49 Winchester. I have been listening to them for almost a year now and it is criminal that they don’t get enough attention.

Mockingbird is such a good song and I only found out about it a couple days ago. It’s stuck in my head on repeat
I’ll Be Loving You off Miranda Lamberts album is an absolute bop, one of my favorites of the year
LOVE Miranda's new album!!! She definitely delivered!
Was hoping Laurel Cove woulda made favorite live show but I guess taking your dad to a show is hard to top. Nice video bud.
Amen on Hailey, Molly, and Randall! Good luck and blessings on your move, bro. And thanks for the introduction to Low Gap... those guys are amazing!
I heard Gus Johnson of Low Gap at my State FFA convention in person. He is very talented and I flipped out when you brought up his band. Gus is also only a junior and they write their own songs.
Long time no see, Grady. I’ve been really busy. Nice to check back in and hear some recommendations.
long neck way to go was sent to radio about a month down in australia and has been in the top 5 ever since, also jon pardi needs to make a 40 song long trucking album
Jon Pardi is cool, but midland carried that song
@@user-uw5vs4jq9v yeah it was definately a midland song ft. jon pardi, but still easily something he would have made, plus he has a unique voice, if thats one way to put it, its nasaly and reminds me of early slim dusty songs
Now you have to come back at the end of the year and do the same categories and see if any change.
My top 3:
1. American Heartbreak - Zach Bryan
2. Country Coming Down - Paul Cauthen

Grady don’t know if ya talked about hank weaver and his single “take it slow” but he has so much talent
I am about to see Charles Wesley Godwin live for the first time and I am super excited about it!
His voice is unreal. He doesn’t get the respect he deserves when he’s opening for other acts.
I saw him a couple months ago and somehow he sounds even better in person
Great list
Thanks for another great video, Grady! Good luck with the move.
As surfer, I really love “Wave Dancer” by The wilder Blue. It’s so relatable to me
Wow, super impressed by Low Gap. Great recommendation and will now be a champion for Mockingbird everywhere I go!
Molly Tuttle's Crooked Tree will never get the attention it deserves, but what a gorgeous album, and I would put the title track up against any song released this year. If you ever get the chance, go see her live. I saw her open for OCMS last year, and I could not stop staring at her hands playing the guitar. What an unbelievable musician!
I know I've DM'd my man's Grady multiple times about Country coming Down by Paul Cauthen. It's so raunchy in such a good way. I wish we'd get some Grady coverage!
Appreciate the love man
So glad you mentioned Cojo at the end. The man is one of the most popular artist in the industry right now and Human is a GREAT album
I had never heard of Orville Peck before a review of him you did a couple of months ago when I immediately became a fan. Since then, I've purchased all of his music and play it constantly. "Let me Drown" is my hands down favorite, though there is not one song I dislike. The last time I purchased any other artist's album would be Miranda Lambert's "The Weight of These Wings." Before that would have been something in the 90's like Tanya Tucker. Keep up the good work you do. Don't get discouraged. Make all those dreams in Nashville come true.
You make country music better
“How the Might Fall” is such a great album. For pre-release songs, Arlo McKinley’s “Stealing Darkness from the Night Sky” and Whiskey Myers’ “John Wayne.”
All very good.
Great to see CWG on here, my personal favorite artist right now and who I believe is one album away from going big
Grady you said you liked 21 pilots what did you think of scaled and icy . ( it's cool to know what you think of songsfrom other genres. )
Miranda has tons of hits obviously but I've noticed alot of my favorite tracks on her albums are the closing tracks like dark bars on wildcard the lyricism that woman has like there is a reason she's regarded as a superstar God like Im gonna probably make an entire video on the genius that is miranda lambert
Yooooooooo New Vid?!?!?!?!?
Low Gap is awesome. Thank you for the recommendation
Finally! Been waiting to see 49 Winchester mentioned here. They're on their way up!
Also Charles Wesley Godwin - such a great artist. Love his song "Jesse."
Saw Hailey Whitters open for American Aquarium a few weeks ago at the Ryman. Great show. I had not given her a chance before but I liked what I heard.
What are your thoughts on kameron Marlowe? He just announced that hes gonna release an album in about two months and personally I love his work. Maybe you’ve talked about him and I’ve missed it though
Love your videos man can't wait to see your videos in Nashville
Grady, you never got around to Brett Eldredge's "Songs About You" -- the song or the album -- in the first half of the year. I really like the song and am frustrated that it's not catching on at radio in the same way we both were frustrated about "Sunrise Tells the Story." Are you not impressed enough, positively or negatively, with Brett's recent work to even do a review?
They might not be strictly country but for alternative country they are some of the best. IV and the Strange Band are really good.
Orville Peck is phenomenal!!
That damn Ernest album still gets played daily at some point for me it’s such a strong piece of songwriting and focused production and I just love it.
Settle on back by jimmi allen is a must listen, just a nice song to jam to along with your buddies.
The rain delays had nothing to do with the way the crowd does. His fans are devoted and all love him and his music for the help they give that therapy never could do. I am one for sure
Grady, since we are in the swing of summer, what about a summer love song video.
Hey Grady! I thought I'd mention an underrated artist that I haven't seen you mention yet, could be an idea for your next video!
Adam Harvey is an Australian artist and below are some of the songs I grew up with, I'd highly recommend checking them all out. Most of his songs from the 90s and 2000s sound unique and not cliché like some other artists out there.
• The House That Jack Built
• The Older I Get
• Beauty's in the Eye (of the Beerholder)
• I'm Doin' Alright
• Genie in the Bottle
• Workin' Overtime
• She's Gone
• Little Bitty Thing Called Love
• Gypsy Queen
• The Shake of a Hand
• When Lonely Met Love
• Love Bug
Let me know what you think! Thanks 🤠
Great to see someone else on the low gap train they’re gonna be good
A few of my 2022 favorites so far:
Habits & hearts by Jimmie Allen-as much more of a Jimmie fan than you’ve been, his new album wasn’t my favorite, but this is a great song that wasn’t written by him but that he related to his dad’s struggles with addiction, so it feels a lot more personal than some of his other stuff
Also love Jimmie’s Down Home, probably one of my favorite’s he’s ever put out along with Habits & Hearts
If I can lose you by Lauren Mascitti-on American idol a few years ago, great song with an awesome classic country sound
Red bird by Hunter Girl-you checked out another song of her’s in one of your videos about buzzy country artists, great song about someone in a rough moment in their life needing a sign from someone in their life who has passed away
Seventeen by Tyler Braden-appeared on the show “American song contest” this year, really great to listen to song about growing up
Also even tho they came out in ‘21, damn strait and the waiter by Scotty McCreery are two songs that I still really love from that album. Honestly that entire album is something I still keep coming back to, I just love the overall sound of it, even tho a good amount of the songs on there are fairly pop country sounding. His voice is just so great to listen to.
Also got to go to a Scotty McCreery concert this year, he is such a good live performer with a great voice live, highly recommend seeing him if you can. King Calaway and Tenille arts were his opening acts, and both were great live as well
wish one of the members of Low Gap wasn’t named Gus Johnson now there’s like 3 people named that to keep track of
Haha true. Announcer, comedian, and singer.
So funny you said Tishomingo. I have listened to every song now several times. It is one of my favorites
So glad to see this! Hope your doing great. Can't wait to see what songs you've picked!
Great list. God Bless on the move.
Haven't heard anything from you on Scotty's Damn Strait single. Soon to be his 5th #1 in a row. This song is real classic country music and his album Same Truck is so good!
Have you still not ever listened to the Steel Woods yet?!? They’re criminally underrated. I could be wrong but I don’t recall you ever reviewing any of their albums
Do you do Apple Music playlists? Would love to follow if you did and discover more great artists 👍🏻
Thoughts on the country tracks on Carrie Underwood's 'Denim & Rhinestones'? Particularly the beautiful 'Garden' as well as 'She Don't Know', 'Velvet Heartbreak', 'Hate My Heart' and the barn-burner 'Poor Everybody Else' ?
Second Chances & Neon by 49 Winchester are bangers!!
Low gap is definitely my favorite, from my home state n all
CWG to end the video. Love it. Charles is a beast
Sold out by Hardy is by far the best Country song of the year so far. Really gets back to the roots of country music and puts George Strait to Shame.
Umm
Expert trolling right here
It’s a rock song. He released as a rock song….
Kameron Marlowe giving u up is kinda overproduced but the acoustic version is one of my fav songs all time plz review
Never heard of the majority of those artists. The only country albums I've listened to this year are Stereotype by Cole swindell, and Blue in the sky by Dustin Lynch. I dont listen much to the new country music 2020 is when I stopped listening to the radio now I just listen to country on RUclips music.
Loved the vid! Could you do a video on Shane Smith and The Saints please?
Sam Barbers voice is so underrated and he writes good ass songs as well. great to see some recognition on him
Did you see Kelsea’s new music video? I think it’s absolutely incredible and amazing and one of her best music videos ever.
That video captured the feeling of falling in love, in the weirdest yet truest way possible. Video of the year Contender.
@@LTProductions335 oh for sure!! In my eyes, it could and will win video of the year!!
I'd love to see you cover Every Girl That Got Away by Emerson Drive at some point. (Or any of their stuff really, I personally enjoy it but never see anyone mention their songs.)
For albums I would put Chris janson all in, Luke combs growin up, Ernest flower shops, Jason Aldean georgia, Cole Swindell stereotype, Joe Nichols good day for living, Dustin Lynch blue in the sky, Brett Eldredge songs about you, and more.
Have you had a chance to listen to Carrie Underwood's new album? I really enjoy the nostalgic sounds on it.
Grady, have you checked out Drake White yet? Dude is criminally under the radar. I'd love to hear what you think. He's not pop country, not Nashville country, but really soulful.
He does have some pretty good music. I first saw him open for Eric Church back in 2012.
Im seeing Zach Bryan and Brothers Osbourne this week, so hype to hear he was your favorite
Just found out that Rhett McLaughlin, co-host of Good Mythical Morning, has released the first single in his solo country music project James and the Shame. Song is called “Believe Me,” and I would be super interested in what you have to say about it.
Kelsey Waldon’s new album is amazing. Also like new release from Alex Keys.
As someone who has listened to the Zach Bryan album a million times, tishimingo is the first song that really grows on you, but level 2 is "someday"(Maggie's)
Growin up by Luke combs I really like!
Thank you as always! Would love to see you check out Tylor & the Train Robbers someday!
Good Lord I never realized Cody Johnson’s Human was last year. Time done flown by I thought he released it like 4 months ago
Dang- Mockingbird is amazing 🔥🔥🔥
If your not obsessed with Tishomingo then something’s wrong with you. She’s Alright right behind it is great too
Can we get a review on Cameron Sacky band? I’ve been hooked for a while now and I honestly think they are very underrated. Thanks!
Billy Stay, She’s Alright, and Happy Instead are masterpieces by Zach Bryan
Heavy eyes is my favorite song of the year
My favorite song from American heartbreak is’68 fastback especially (I cleaned up my pistons running on 91) or the good I’ll do or sober side of sorry or she’s alright or no cure especially when it says “I’m living proof that Highway boys don’t dieeee” or billy stay or younger years or happy instead especially the ending
Hair salon is such an amazing song🤯
I absolutely love Best Shot from Jimmie Allen.
Bronco is the best country album of the year. He’s changing the country sound for the better and is light years ahead of every other country artist.
Hahaha I think it's v good, but I def don't think it's changing the sound. I do love that it feels a little less like dress-up country music this time around.
Told ya so!
