Iris DeMent - Let The Mystery Be
Agree on Lake Combs. I had tickets to country 2 country in which he was headlining last year. Sadly given it was due to take place the day before the start of Lockdown 1.0 unsurprisingly the plug was pulled. If it survives (it almost certainly won't happen this year)I stumbled across Country through Spotify a few years ago after always favouring rock/alternative/indie... I would now say Country is my go-to genre.
Unfortunately the perception of Country music in the UK is still the stereotypical cowboy/western theme
Luke Combs is one of the biggest artists at the minute and well worth a listen. Ashley McBryde is also great!
I was gutted when he was the Sunday headliner as couldn't make it in London - so we decided to go to C2C Amsterdam the weekend before to see him... What a decision that turned out to be!!Agree on Lake Combs. I had tickets to country 2 country in which he was headlining last year.

I recommend country to country for anyone slightly interested in the scene. Given its mix of big stars and smaller bands in satellite stages it's a great place to get into country or listen to artists you hadn't heard of before.
Although I was aware of him before, sadly it took his death last year for me to really appreciate the genius of John Prine. Ended up being my most listened to artist on Spotify last year.
So many to chose from but given the isolation we are all going through at the moment, particularly the elderly this seems a suitable choice
