Country / Alt-Country / Roots / Americana

Probably not in the order I'd have them, but a good representation.

it's a decent list, I would make all kinds of changes, but its a good list.
Great list but the “Alt.” in Alt. Country is doing a lot of the heavy lifting here, isn’t it? I feel like, at least a quarter of the list; wouldn’t be filed under the “Alt. Country genre in my imaginary record store.
 
I watched an alt-country documentary one time and I think it was Emmylou Harris that said "alt-country is country music for liberals".
Right! Same goes for “Americana”, Country music for people who think they don’t like Country music.

I used to used to use Alt. Country/Americana tag for organizing my digital music library but at some point I found it silly and decided everything under that Style would either be moved to Country or somewhere else and I haven’t missed it one bit.
