• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Geoffrey Himes explores a previously unnamed movement that helped shape modern country music: In-Law Country. It was a movement of outsiders who would become insiders. Weaving together biography and musical analysis, Himes shows how Emmylou Harris, Rosanne Cash, Rodney Crowell, Ricky Skaggs, Guy Clark, and others changed the sounds and stories of country music forever.
