The Sound of Neo Honky Tonk

"The Sound of Neo Honky Tonk" brings together a mix of modern artists who carry the honky tonk tradition forward with a fresh perspective. This playlist blends barroom twang, classic country storytelling, and a bit of roadhouse grit, featuring tracks like Arty Hill’s "12 Pack Morning" and Red Meat’s "Honky Tonk Habit." There’s a mix of traditional honky tonk sounds and contemporary influences, from the driving energy of Two Dollar Pistols’ "Runnin' With the Fools" to the swaying melodies of Chris Gaffney’s "Cowboys To Girls."

With a selection that includes everything from the outlaw country stylings of Railbenders’ "The Outlaw Way" to Miss Leslie’s retro honky tonk revival in "I'll Be Gone Tonight," this playlist covers a broad spectrum of country grit and charm. Songs like "Move It on Over" by Girls Guns and Glory or Bill Kirchen’s "Rocks into Sand" keep things lively with foot-stomping rhythms, while Sarah Gayle Meech’s "Light of Day" adds a touch of raw emotion. Whether it's classic themes of heartache, hard living, or late-night jukebox anthems, this collection celebrates the evolving sound of honky tonk in today’s country scene.
