    Hello,

    I love this kind of songs but I haven't happened to know much names or hear much songs of it. What are some good songs in this genre? (I prefer natural songs of instruments, especially violin.)

    I liked these ones very much:

    Those are both 80s country songs so I'd say any list of top country songs during the 80s would be a great start for you. George Jones, George Strait, Randy Travis, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Clint Black, Alabama...

    To add to what Aspen has recommended, I’d also include Johnny Cash.

    I'm really not a fan of the genres, but there is one country song I really like and that is "Jackpot" by Nikki Lane

    I'm super into country, went to Nashville last summer, it was amazing but super hot.

    Few of my favourites I don't think have been mentioned
    Albert lee
    Sturgill simpson
    Orville peck
    Daniel donato
    Junior brown
    Emmylou Harris
    First aid kit
    The random country album ween did
    Dwight yoakam
    Don gibson
    Buck owens
    Loretta Lynn
    The country album the byrds did
    Flying burrito brothers

    The list goes on.
    I'm a big fan of other country derivatives, like Southern gothic (basically country folk), think the louvin brothers, towns van zandt, etc, rockabilly like Bill Haley, the stray cats, and psychobilly like the cramps and reverend Horton heat.

    I'm really surprised nobody has mentioned Devil Makes Three, The Dead South, or The Builders and the Butchers
