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.
