Progressive Countryไม่ใช่เพลง Progressive แบบที่เราชอบกันหรอกนะครับ หมายถึงพวกนักดนตรีคันทรี่ที่แหกคอก นำเสนอการผสมผสานดนตรีคันทรี่กับแนวดนตรีอื่นต่างหาก รวมทั้งในแง่ของเนื้อหาในบทเพลงด้วย โดยหัวเรือใหญ่ที่คุ้นเคย ( เมื่อก่อนผมไม่ชอบ Willie เอาซะเลยนะ จวบจนวัยได้ที่แล้ว เริ่มชอบมากขึ้นๆทุกที
)
A reaction to the slick Country Pop of the late 1960s and early 1970s, Progressive Country artists mixed Singer/Songwriter, Honky Tonk, and Rock & Roll with Traditional Country styles. The result was a rootsy, raw sound that stood in stark contrast to the mainstream country artists of the day. Although not a lyric-based genre, Progressive Country artists tended to have more introspective, intellectual lyrics and rarely relied on outside songwriters (another break from the predominant Nashville business model).
