FAN FAVORITE POLL – 2013 – Americana/Alt-country/bluegrass

EDIT:  SAT DEC 21, 2013 — POLLS CLOSED.  

Americana / alt-country / bluegrass = country music, roots music, American music, rural, acoustic, banjo, fiddle, steel guitar … twang – or not, hats – or not, it might rock hard (alt-country-rock) – or not.  It is what it sounds like, and we here in Colorado have some of the best in the country.  Last year the Lumineers were nominated for a Grammy Award in the Americana genre – this year, Elephant Revival broke the TOP 20 of the national Americana Music Association radio airplay charts.

HELP:

  • Share The Colorado Sound Live365 by embedding it in your website or by sharing it with your friends at FB and Twitter
  • Make a donation to keep The Colorado Sound Live365 streaming the Best in Colorado Music 1960-today.  The goal to keep it on the air from now til March 31 is $1200.  Donations can be made by sending to thecoloradosound@gmail.com (PayPal) or by using Fundrzr.  Advertising/underwriting opportunities do exist across all my platforms.

I will be using the following GENRE/PROGRAM FORMA as I do in the chart post every month.

Blues / Rhythm & Blues
Folk / folk-rock / singer-songwriter
Indie / New Alternative
Jazz / Instrumental
Pop / Adult Contemporary / Crossover
Rock / AAA / ALT / AOR

Only those records released between November 1, 2012 and October 30, 2013 are considered “current” 2013 releases for the purpose of this poll, and the end of year charts.  Pick your FIVE favorites of the year.  PLS SHARE.  PLS DONATE.

  1. Blue Canyon Boys are an awesome Colorado bluegrass band out of Denver who continuously put out great tunes and delight audiences around the country. They are all outstanding musicians who know how to get a crowd up and dancing with their catchy tunes and blazing riffs and then turn around, set down those instruments and dazzle you with the sweet sounds of four part harmony gospel singing!
    These guys are serious musicians with down to earth attitudes who enjoy what they do and bring it to the table every time!

    1. The Blue Canyon Boys are the best ever. I’ve seen the crowd reaction to them numerous times including Crested Butte, CO.
