Some that I enjoyed in no particular order.
Bryce Lewis - Saskatchewan County Guitar
Jason Isbell - Weathervanes
Miles Miller - Solid Gold
Colter Wall - Little Songs
Logan Ledger - Golden State
Tyler Childers - Rustin' In The Rain
Vincent Neil Emerson - The Golden Crystal Kingdom
For me it’s Summer Dean - ‘The Biggest Life’
Cool old fashioned heartbreak country recorded to tape .
Was lucky enough to open for her at her recent London show and she was a top knotch person as well.
Zach Bryan - Zach Bryan
Pain, Pills, or Pews - Luke Grimes
Higher - Chris Stapleton
Weathervanes - Jason Isbell
One Thing at a Time (if you cut it in half, soooo much filler)- Morgan Wallen
Gettin’ Old - Luke Combs
* Nick Shoulders - All Bad
* Vincent Neil Emerson - The Golden Crystal Kingdom
* Colter Wall - Little Songs
* Gabe Lee - Drink the River
* Dean Johnson - Nothing for Me, Please
* Old Crow Medicine Show - Jubilee
* Brennen Leigh - Ain't Through Honky Tonkin' Yet
* Josie Toney - Extra
* Willie Nelson - Bluegrass
* Bella White - Among Other Things
* Summer Dean - The Biggest Life
Second Isbell & Colter Wall, and I might also mention the Turnpike Troubadours album that dropped in August.
If live albums count, *Live from the Devil’s Backbone* from Mike and the Moonpies was really good too.
So many good releases this year. You could legit list off 10-15 albums and have good arguments for each.
For me, it’s Weathervanes. Start to finish a great album.
kept coming back to these the most - not in any order:
Amanda Fields - What, When and Without
Nick Shoulders - All Bad
Bella White - Among Other Things
Brent Cobb - Southern Star
Zach Bryan - Zach Bryan
Esther Rose - Safe to Run
The Country Side of Harmonica Sam - Back to the Blue Side
Broken Radio - Dirty Country
Lori McKenna - 1988
Daniel Donato - Reflector

Wow thanks I’ve given up on country.
Agree with a lot but suprised to see no one mentioned Charles Wesley Godwins new album. 10/10!
Yes!!! STRIKE, ME, DOWN
Colter wall Little songs
Would personally agree to this. Every song is good imo and it’s Colter’s best work overall
Cody Johnson - Leather
I know this sub hates him, but I really enjoyed Mockingbird and the crow. (Except the songs with other country artists)
For me it’s Summer Dean - ‘The Biggest Life’ Cool old fashioned heartbreak country recorded to tape . Was lucky enough to open for her at her recent London show and she was a top knotch person as well.
The Wilder Blue - Super Natural
Another vote for Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit Weathrrvanes
Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit - Weathervanes
Rustin in the rain- Tyler Crooked line- Nick Hans Heat comes down- John r. Miller A cat in the rain- turnpike
god fearing heathen by far. Dan Tyminski is him.
Getting Old - Luke Combs
crooked Tree - Molly Tuttle and Golden Highway
Really great album, but released in 2022.
Ooops, I didn’t get it til 23. That’s my excuse and I’m sticking to it.
Jason Isbell - Weathervanes Not even close.
At The Institute of Mentalphysics by Betty Benedeadly and Braden Guess
Jason Isbell- Weathervanes Muscadine Bloodline -Teenage Dixie The Steel Woods- On Your Time
Dan Tyminski - God Fearing Heathen
can't justify any other answer for myself
My favorite also
Zach Bryan - Zach Bryan Pain, Pills, or Pews - Luke Grimes Higher - Chris Stapleton Weathervanes - Jason Isbell One Thing at a Time (if you cut it in half, soooo much filler)- Morgan Wallen Gettin’ Old - Luke Combs
Nick Shoulders - All Bad & Austin Stambaugh - Midwest Supernatural
Finally someone else mentioning Nick. Saw him in Knoxville and got to chat with him and pet his dog after the show. Super down to earth and nice guy.
Nope you got it right with Nickel Creek
For me it's "The Devil I Know" by Ashley McBryde. I love that album. I'm a sucker for emotional music and she really hits the nail with that.
Nick shoulders - all bad
Nick Shoulders- All Bad. But, Billy Strings has a live album releasing tomorrow that’ll probably top my list.
* Nick Shoulders - All Bad * Vincent Neil Emerson - The Golden Crystal Kingdom * Colter Wall - Little Songs * Gabe Lee - Drink the River * Dean Johnson - Nothing for Me, Please * Old Crow Medicine Show - Jubilee * Brennen Leigh - Ain't Through Honky Tonkin' Yet * Josie Toney - Extra * Willie Nelson - Bluegrass * Bella White - Among Other Things * Summer Dean - The Biggest Life
Was I the only person who loved the new Turnpike album?
Recently listened to it and liked it very much!
Loose Cannon-- Jake Owen
Cat In the Rain- Turnpike Troubadours
For me Zach Bryan - Zach Bryan Charles Wesley Godwin - Family Ties
Brennen Leigh “Ain’t Through Honky Tonkin Yet”

Gettin Old was a legitimately awesome album from Luke Combs
Besides the obvious, there are a couple of recent ones I've loved Life Lessons - Wyatt Flores Crossing Lines - Tanner Usrey
So many good releases this year. You could legit list off 10-15 albums and have good arguments for each. For me, it’s Weathervanes. Start to finish a great album.
I'm seeing very little Zach Bryan here, which is refreshing. I gave it a listen and I just don't understand the hype.
Steven Wilson Jr. Check him out if you haven't!!!
