I can't believe Chris Knight hasn't been mentioned, I know he's not a Texan but he's red dirt for sure.

The semantics of defineing "texas country artist" as only from texas and red dirt from oklahoma has no bearing on the music type, just state chest thumping

2nd... the ACTUAL ARTISTS called the stuff they did red dirt... in texas...example: red dirt round up, in fory worth cross, randy, reckless kelly( from idaho but if you dont think their red dirt your helpless), stoney, mickey and the motor cars....
3rd... plenty of red dirt in texas, wow you really went there
That said, WHO CARES, accept the genre and lets talk about THE MUSIC... like the first 3/4 of this thread instead arguing semantics...

I guarantee you I have seen Reckless Kelley waaaay more than you have. They call their music hick rock. Like Ragweed they are a rock band with a bit of country influence.
Simmer down.
I pulled this from a music website:
This best Red Dirt bands list ranks the best Red Dirt country singers and musicians by votes. This list of Red Dirt bands let’s you see who Red Dirt fans think are the best in Red Dirt country music.*Getting its name from the soil in Oklahoma, Red Dirt singers are generally from the Sooner State (Stillwater in particular). One of Red Dirt music's greatest attributes is how it's sound is expansive in the sense that few people can accurately pinpoint it. Some associate Red Dirt bands with alt-country, others with Americana and folk. No matter what your definition is, Red Dirt music remains wildly popular in America's heartland with Red Dirt country dominating the radio and live shows in that particular region. Though the sound is closely associated with Oklahoma, the difference between that and Texas country music has dimmed over the years and with some Red Dirt bands intertwining the sound that was once so distinctive between the neighboring states.Last edited by Burntorange Bowhunter; 04-20-2017, 01:23 PM.
