 It's volume 2 of my rankdown of non-mainstream country songs. Since hosting volume 1 almost two years ago, I have listened to even more 'indie' songs and saved some more interesting ones to my playlist. I also picked more popular songs according to artists page in Spotify. Maybe it will increase the appeal a little bit?  As opposed to volume 1, you will know all songs in the rankdown now. I will talk about the artist, the reason I chose the song and other comments on the song during the reveal instead. The songs: Aaron Watson - Bluebonnets (Julia's Song) American Aquarium - Six Years Come September Aubrie Sellers - Under the Sun Brent Cobb - Diggin' Holes Caroline Spence - Sometimes A Woman Is An Island Cody Jinks - David Corb Lund - I Think You Oughta Try Whiskey (ft. Jaida Dreyer) Dee White - Road That Goes Both Ways (ft. Ashley McBryde) Elizabeth Cook - El Camino Emily Scott Robinson - The Dress Erin Enderlin - Broken Gabe Lee - Heartbreaker's Smile Gretchen Peters - Idlewild Ian Noe - Letter to Madeline Jason Hawk Harris - Grandfather Jason Isbell - Traveling Alone Jenny Tolman - So Pretty Jesse Daniel - Sam Jessi Alexander - I Should Probably Go Now John Baumann - Flight Anxiety John Moreland - Terrestrial Kalie Shorr - Escape Kelsey Waldon - Kentucky, 1988 Kylie Frey - Rodeo Queen Lindi Ortega - Tin Star Liz Rose - Swimming Alone Lori McKenna - The Bird & The Rifle Lydia Loveless - Wringer Margo Price - Hurtin' (On the Bottle) Michaela Anne - One Heart Mike and the Moonpies - Danger Randy Rogers & Wade Bowen - Rhinestoned Ray Wylie Hubbard - Drink Till I See Double (ft. Paula Nelson & Elizabeth Cook) Rhiannon Giddens - Better Get It Right the First Time Ryan Beaver - When This World Ends (ft. Maren Morris) Sierra Hull - How Long Tessy Lou Williams - One More Night Turnpike Troubadours - 7 & 7 Tyler Childers - Ever Lovin' Hand Zach Bryan - God Speed Instructions: 1) Rank the songs from #1 (most favorite) to #40 (least favorite) 2) Send your list to me via PM on or before March 1st (tentative obviously)March 3rd. 3) Enjoy and maybe save some songs into your playlist!

I might do this. Consider this my attempt at delving more into Spectrum Pulse-core.

Here is the Apple Music Playlist for us non-Spotify users. You're quite brave to include Tyler's "Ever Lovin' Hand" as I'm sure that'll raise a few eyebrows  |

So many amazing songs and artist in this list!!
Very very happy “El Camino” is there! It’s an oddity but I love that song to pieces. I jam to it in my car all the time!

I’ve been playing the list all weekend while I’m at my family’s cabin in the mountains and this is just a perfect playlist for up here!!
It’s going to suck to rank them honestly.

I've made sure to give the list 2 run-throughs before submitting (usually I keep it to 1), on account of how much of the list I'm unfamiliar with. There's one track I didn't rank favorably in a previous game, but I'm connecting with it way more now--said song is going to receive a steep raise this time around.

I am so in. I'm going to have to fight the temptation to just hand the #1 spot to one of my favorites. About ready to dive into this playlist.

Based on the rankdown queue thread, apparently this is the most recently due rankdown that I still haven't done yet! I'd better get on that! Expect a list from me within the next couple days :)

I don't usually do country lists, but the alt/indie country artists often cross over into the AAA world, and I've always liked the intersection of Americana, country and southern rock. This should be fun.

I'm working on this. It's rather good, it's taking longer than I'm used to because the majority of these I don't know so they are bearing a couple repeat listens. I may get this in late tomorrow
I know the Corb Lund song has had a good bit of extra play...

Just submitted. My number one stayed my number one from the get-go, but I definitely found some new artists that I plan to check out.

My list will be in soon!
I was pleasantly surprised by quite a few of these (mostly the female-led songs), but there's several that were serving some pretty rough vocals...
