Artists from around the globe
Americana and Alt Country is of course a music style made in the United States and is mainly dominated by American/Canadian musicians. However, there are some great artists coming out of Europe and other parts of the world. Discuss here :)

Spontaneous composition.
Hi guys

Hello everyone. I am constantly surprised by the amount of resources there are on the net for Americana, Alt Country, Singer Songwriter style music. When I came across No Depression (I can't even remember how now.. it was a long train of links and clicks) I signed up straight away. I'm still getting used to the format and have no idea how many people actually use it, but here I am.
