There's some really good contemporary country coming out at the moment. I'm a huge fan of Colter Wall, the most incredible voice you'll ever hear in a 22 year old! Proper songs too. Also worth checking out Jason Isbell (has some lovely tiny desk performances), Charley Crockett, Orville Peck, Sturgill Simpson, Chris Stapleton etc.. Also I'm With Her, who are sort of country-adjacent have some wonderful stuff....
