Ask HN: Do you listen to country music?

I love country music. More so than other genres I've listened to, country music has such a range. It can be upbeat and cheery, pump you up, change your mood, sooth your soul, provide empathy, be simple & complex...It speaks to me, no matter what mood I'm in or what's going on in my life. I'm sure others feel the same way about whatever music they listen to, but for me, it's country.

If you listen to it long enough, someone has sung about whatever exact, or almost exact, experience you have gone through. I like that.

I like some country music, but don't listen to a lot of it.

I listen to stuff that might be mistaken for it, though! The Avett Brothers, Nickel Creek, Trampled by Turtles.

Folk music, but people who think badly of country music usually don't like banjos, either, and can't make the distinction in genre.

Help what?

No and Yes!

Yes and No!

Yes I do and it helps me to relax :)
