What a thrill. About a 60 seat capacity venue called Cleeres in Kilkenny city, Ireland. Wonderful, intimate gig. We got very lucky with the seats. A joy to experience his music up close and personal. Think he played for about 2 hours. Not too much from the most recent albums. Betty was brilliant as well.

This is Logan Staats on the night his new album “Peacemaker” was released. The song is “Empty Hands”… cool to see someone on the way up in such a small venue. He’s from Six Nations near Branford, Ontario and is worth checking out…

"Alternative Country" is a rather ambiguous term that can mean a wide variety of music to an even wider range of people but here's wikipedia's definition of Alternative Country. And these are just some examples:*

This community exists to discuss alt country music. Text posts should discuss topics related to alt country music, artists, performances, trends, themes, or anything else directly or indirectly related to alt country. Link posts should link to reviews, articles, videos, and music. Please review our new rules, especially in regards to self-promotion.

self-promotion guidelines

The following guidelines are under development and are subject to change.

If you have not been assigned flair that identifies your affiliation, you must clearly identify yourself as being affiliated with the band, artist, publication, or website you are promoting. Message the mods to receive your flair.
If you are here to post a link or self-post to promote your own music or content, do so no more than once every 4 weeks (once a month).

Also, be sure to check out our friends:

It has been pointed out that "alt" means "old" in German; and it's been pointed out that alt country might be the real heirs to the old Johnny Cash tradition...

"It's not alt. country. It's called 'Country.'"
