Kentucky tournament with Tyler Childers, Sturgill Simpson, Chris Stapleton and Dwight Yoakam

[@MrRobCharles]

I love all those guys, especially sturgill, but Chris would whoop everybody else's ass in this.

[@bikkk57]

Love Chris along with the rest, and Chris might have the best voice of those mentioned, but he couldn't touch Childers, Simpson, or Yoakam in songwriting. Just my .02@@MrRobCharles

[@allencarabajal8989]

I’m from Texas and Texas redirt will always be my #1 go to, but Tyler Childers is always circulating through my playlists no matter what, he kicks ass.

[@tannerdugger1]

I'm from Oklahoma but hell yeah brother this one would be sick I love all of these guys

[@annadover627]

Dwight 💙

[@deanmidlick5868]

The thing i like about Texas country artists and a lot of other country artists is that they are down to earth. Most Texas country artists as soon as they are off stage for the night they come down to drink and hangout with the fans especially hear in the San Antonio area where a lot of these guys live like Randy Rogers, Kevin Fowler, and a lot others. You don't find respect for fans like that much anymore with most other music artists these days.

[@sethmden]

You couldn’t be more right. I live here in San Marcos and played fiddle for a few around here, Duke Ryan, Ian Tonroy, Austin James and have gotten the chance to put down a few whiskeys with rogers and Fowler. It’s always so much fun when everyone takes a break, does a lap around the bar and has conversations with the actual patrons that come in. Texas singers are just different in the best way.

[@chrismorrison4315]

you guys are my favourite music reactors on youtube. keep up the great work.

[@evanwest4751]

I haven't found anyone close to how authentic LiV is. Most everyone else just nods and smiles while listening without saying any thoughts on it.

[@bradseymore2467]

That is gold!

[@GradySmith]

This is a great idea. I have quickly realized that Texas fans are their own kind of passionate!

[@GlueGunsRoses]

We definitely are ❤

[@jesseflores6306]

Yes we are. But I like to watch ur reactions. Honest, and that’s what I like. Play more wade bowen. My second favorite artist behind the king.

[@TheUnnamedFeels]

"We're gonna open up the phone lines." Giving the phone number to a KZbin comments section. God be with you guys.

[@adampriestley202]

Definitely crazy lol

[@jslank86]

Born and raised in Texas. God I love y’all. You guys know how to make a grown man cry 😢 lol 👍🏼 #lostinvegasfam

[@TheRealSnookE]

a big complaint about country music from people that don't usually listen to it( hip-hop and metal as well) is that all the songs sound the same...one great thing I think about this new setup with hearing the songs back to back is you could clearly tell the difference in styles, feeling, nuances, just general sound of each band. As a non country fan I felt like I could appreciate it even more and could see this helping to understand whatever genre even more. Looking forward to Pt 2

[@1234chris]

Good point. I think another part of it is people who don't usually listen to country have only listened to the nashville pop they push on "country" radio. It does all sound the same and 99% of it is just garbage. So those people really just haven't actually ever listened to country music and just don't know any better.

[@aboutthat1440]

Sounds like the Rap on the radio these days. It all sounds the same and is lyrically trash. Radio just sucks to me these days. You have to stay away from radio to hear good music. They won't play it. I think their agenda is clear. Keep people away from any kind of thinking. Thankfully there is always talent out there.

[@joshuamoosman1995]

Instead of March madness we got music madness "not in a bad way" music is life. Keep up the good work guys

[@laurenmolina3002]

Cody Johnson’s “Half a Song” vs Randy Rogers Band “Buy myself a chance”

[@jmartinez6321]

Hell yea that one would be a good match up!!

[@nadiajuarez4763]

damnn 2 of my fav country songs of all time

[@leoingle]

Love "buy myself a chance". Randy has many great songs.

[@rdlangston13]

Buy myself a chance is one of my wife’s and I favorite songs to dance too.

[@TheKondinho]

Love the new production setup guys. Keep prospering.

[@astan26]

Man I'm glad ima generational Texan. Not only do I get to hear these Texas jams and see them in concert on a regular basis, but these songs are etched in my life for life.

[@Hopper12]

Ah damn y'all got Cody Jinks vs Whiskey Myers? That should be your 1 and 2 seed but still love the recognition of good ole Texas country music. Bravo y'all.

[@eternalwings]

I never watch reaction videos except for you guys. I think it's so cool that you finally got the podcast thing going and have a new and improved setup. You guys rock, love the channel, love the content, hope you can do this full time, I'm going to donate soon!

[@pedrogonzales4669]

Yall picked two of the top artists/bands in Texas.......love it

[@OfficialColtenWest]

Cody Johnson is the man!

[@mrob51780]

Definitely the best, most authentic music reactors on KZbin. Love you guys. Cody Johnson and Randy Rogers are both great artists, but gotta go with Randy Rogers in this showdown. One of my favorite songs.

[@JiveTalker78]

I'm from Texas but I do love Oklahoma music too! John Moreland and Turnpike Troubadours are amazinggg!!!

[@dlb1621]

Moreland is way underrated, that dude should be famous.

[@TheWdayton]

I love them both, but John Moreland is my hero. His writing alone is astounding, and his voice and guitar playing are fantastic as well.

[@tylerwhitworth4113]

So glad y'all are venturing back into Texas Country and Red Dirt. I love both of these songs, but I think head to head Cody Johnson takes it. If you had songs with similar subject matter it would be tougher to call.

[@caravina9938]

Parker McCollum, wade bowen, koe wetzel, Aaron Watson

[@xRockstar1052x]

Parker and Koe bloodbath

[@davidortiz9577]

hella 530 I can’t believe I forgot these artists. 🤯 Wade Bowen is one of my favorites. Joe Wetsel and Aaron Watson are bad asses

Koe needs to release a new album ASAP! How bout some Shane smith

I love watching y'all react to country music! IDK why I haven't come back here for more reactions on Red Dirt. I usually see y'alls rap reactions.

Randy Rogers Band is an OG. Dont get it twisted bruh

[@beaubutler6460]

But Cody’s better

[@DStyleBoxing]

Cody is not better.

[@ericibarra123]

Cody is not better. Randy Rogers Band is a reason most people want to play Texas country music.

[@TheXxKingSlayrxX]

They have so many good songs I feel this pick wasn’t the best

[@DStyleBoxing]

@@TheXxKingSlayrxX nothing wrong with this pick . All of us can relate to the song. Many of us have been there one time or another.. The lyrics are better. Cody sounds like he's trying to sound Texas country... RRB IS Texas Country

[@Norman-Bates]

I'm working but will come back to watch the video in a few hours, I'm loving these pod casts. Dope

[@zombiechomps]

Oh yeah, I'm in on this new format. I just heard 2 songs I never would have heard if not for you guys. Both songs were great. The best part I dont have to pick a winner. Definitely picking up these songs on itunes and checking out more. Good on you guys, cant wait for more.

[@jasonstagg9238]

Yall need to do Uncle Lucius-keep the wolves away

Wes Krug Totally agree, Brady Black is phenomenal.

[@rickydixon9664]

Saw them at coyote Joes in Charlotte NC. He was awesome as a fiddle player. Was a great experience. Parker McCollum opened up for them. Lot of beer was drank

[@leoingle]

I used to know Brady really well when he played with Dub Miller.

Too hard for me to pick a winner. I enjoy both songs, but the song I prefer just depends on my mood. Today, it’s Cody. Hit me up after a few glasses of wine and it would be Randy. Either way, loved the video and can’t wait to see part 2!

[@williamskellyl1]

I don’t have a dog in the hunt because I’ve never heard either of these artists. Speaking subjectively, the first one caught my attention more. The lyrics painted a better picture and the music was more complex in a way that made the musician in me sit at attention.

A couple things. Ill never forget the first time I saw RRB in concert. In my arms and Kiss me in the dark moved everyone there to their souls. Amazing songs. Kiss me in the dark should be the next song if yall pick them ( I think yall should ) I feel like yall missed out on two awesome artists/bands. Ryan Bingham (south side of heaven - look for the version at white water and Josh abbot band - she's like Texas... or frankly anything by them. ) Love what yall do. ps. The Cody Johnson song should have been Texas kinda way or dance her home.
