Finger Pickin' Good Weird Country Music

[puff_not_snuff]

When I was a young man, I lived in the east village, played a lot of jug, until my roommate got drunk, and busted up everyone (of them). Now, I just listen to Goose Creek Symphony...

Anyways... anyone happen to have any recommendations that thresh as hard as this barn stomper?

I don't know of a Goose Creek Symphony song that I do not like. You've chosen well!

Here's a favorite (although in a slow mood):

Thought it was "finger licking good.." I want my picture of good southern fried chicken now!

Weird country music?

There's only one name at the top of that list: Unknown Hinson (named after his daddy from the birth certificate).

That is a great one thanks. What sort of country is Goose Creek even considered?

Hell yes! Going to compile an epic playlist based on this thread.

Here's a link (Goose Creek Symphony) to the band's Website. There you will find a variety of descriptions of their musical style. Enjoy!

Oh crap, I didn't realize they are still active. Ever see them live?

I don't know if it is weird, but I refuse to let any opportunity go by without singing the praises of Billy String's "Renewal". It is an amazing album.

 

[The Amish Tyrant]

I like my bluegrass with a dose of punk or hard rock, like Mike Ness (from Social Distortion) and Cheating at Solitaire and Under the Influences.

Also, these guys seem fun (covering Thunderstruck).

My favorite weird country group are the Mennonite Brandenburger Family.

How did a first language German speaking family learn all those old Scottish American favorites?

I guess you could say any country music is good music.

 

[ADKPiper]

I like it.
The beginning sounds a bit like Pure Prairie League

Unknown Hinson was great.
Sadly he passed away.
The voice of the squidbillies along with his very original songs.

I've seen Reckless Kelly live a few times, great show! Turnpike Troubadours are back now too! Hopefully they stay together for a while this time.

I've always liked Southern Culture On The Skids.
Take some Rock A Billie, some Country, and some B Movie themes and mix it all up and that's SCOTS.
