Intro

NeoTraditionalCountry

Aspires to the sounds and styles of old country music, a la Hank Williams and Kitty Wells, updated with modern production methods and other more modern musical elements. Emerged in the 1980s and eschewed the dominant pop country style of the time. In addition to adopting the sounds of older country music, neotraditionalists often dress in the style of older country musicians. Prominent artists include George Strait and the Judds.
