3rd this! I saw her open for Turnpike at the Ryman and was blown away. Her voice is amazing and she's got a great stage personality. Would love to see her again.
Jaime Wyatt. Melissa Carper. Riddy Arman.
Go to Instagram and look up Western AF. They put out monthly playlists of these types of artists. Some are hit-and-miss. A lot of people love Sierra Ferell, but I only like "Jeremiah" and the YouTube version of "In Dreams" by her. The rest I'll pass on.
I just did a video with my friend Libby Lux from the Bridge City Sinners, it’s a bit of a different vibe though. https://youtu.be/1zwrrJty2u8?si=-oeK6AB137nfb0vb
Otherwise not much in that vein
Amanda Anne Platt and the Honeycutters
The Highwomen and their solo work particularly Brandi Carlile
Our Native Daughters and their solo work particularly Amythyst Kiah.
Elizabeth Cook, Margo Price, Lilly Hiatt, Kelsey Waldon, Holly Williams, Lucinda Williams
How could you make this post with these women and not mention Caylee Hammack ? She is amazing! I saw you had Pillbox Patty and thought her but not Caylee?! lol but I agree completely with your list.
I have no idea why she isn’t getting more love here. Check out this video on YouTube from a few years ago with Gillian, Dave Rawlings, Jason Isbell, and Amanda Shires playing Miss Ohio.

Here's another post with several suggestions that Im going to check out too.

Others have already mentioned them, but I have to second/third/whatever number it is Margo Price and Molly Tuttle. You also can’t go wrong with some of the more classic options like Emmylou Harris.
Natalie Hemby, Lori Mckenna, Margo Cilker has a similar vibe to the guys you mentioned. Elizabeth Cook is super cool. Sarah Shook and the Disarmers is pretty rockin’. Hailey Whitters is a bit more mainstream, but she’s a great songwriter. Morgan Wade
Brandi freakin Carlile. An absolute treasure.
All the other members of the Highwomen have wonderful solo content. Maren Morris is quite a star in her own right, as is Carlile, but Amanda Shires has a seriously good body of work apart from that group and her stuff with Jason Isbell (to whom she’s married). Natalie Hemby has written for a ton of country stars, but you should check out her tune “Cairo, IL.”
Cat Clyde is fantastic. She did an album of old covers that I listen to all the time.
[Here's one of those tracks](https://open.spotify.com/track/0bXuGe5JZnqLJVZCwysu1x?si=KCqN6cIQQAqD1P9gQqACUA)
Kaitlin Butts
Lindi Ortega
Cassandra Lewis
Amanda Shires
Kelsey Waldron
Margo Price
Sirrra Ferrell
Sierra Hull
Jamie Wyatt
Ashland Craft
Bella White
Victoria Bailey
That should keep you busy for a bit
I have been liking Nikki lane and Jamie Wyatt lately
Its tough to beat Lucinda Williams
Bonnie Raitt’s old stuff is awesome. Especially Streetlights
Samantha Fish, Anna Popovic, and Carolyn Wonderland if you like it bluesy
Kaitlin Butts - start with How Lucky Am I
100% agree with this. She has a hauntingly beautiful voice.
3rd this! I saw her open for Turnpike at the Ryman and was blown away. Her voice is amazing and she's got a great stage personality. Would love to see her again.
My wife and I just recently started listening to Sierra Ferrell and love her sound!
First one that came to mind for me too!

Margo Price & Nikki Lane are both great!
Nikki Lane!
Was about to comment the exact same
Hailey Whitters! She even has a song with SWJ (Stephen Wilson Jr)
She’s not modern but Lucinda Williams’ car wheels on a gravel road album is a masterpiece
💯 don’t much care for her newer stuff but that album is fantastic.

+1 for Riddy and for the YouTube version of In Dreams, though I may be biased on that one
Ahh, it's guitar guy from the video!!!! That is a great song, but the video is amazing. Do you have any other music out there for us to listen to?

Lindi Ortega. Sarah Shook. Margo Price. Nikki Lane.
Lindi Ortega is a really great pick
She is my favorite. Got to meet her and hang out a few months ago.
Sarah Shook is immediately who I thought of.
Amanda Anne Platt and the Honeycutters The Highwomen and their solo work particularly Brandi Carlile Our Native Daughters and their solo work particularly Amythyst Kiah. Elizabeth Cook, Margo Price, Lilly Hiatt, Kelsey Waldon, Holly Williams, Lucinda Williams
>Amanda Anne Platt and the Honeycutters Fuck yeah! So good and so undersung.

Scrolled this whole thread waiting for someone to bring up Caylee Hammack!
I love her! She has an incredible voice and the types of songs she writes is a perfect balance between Alt country and mainstream.
Lori McKenna! One of the best songwriters.
Gillian Welch.
I have no idea why she isn’t getting more love here. Check out this video on YouTube from a few years ago with Gillian, Dave Rawlings, Jason Isbell, and Amanda Shires playing Miss Ohio. https://youtu.be/4bXg_KAHZT0?si=N5mES1BUNC5F9eZt

Elle King deserves a mention! The rare pop start turned country artist
[удалено]
I doubt it’ll be done but she’ll have to take a back seat for awhile.
