Synopsis

Album Description
Washington, D.C. was once a major regional country music hub. Many future counry stars moved there or passed through during WWII. After the war, a scene was apparent: Roy Clark, Jimmy Dean and Patsy Cline were fixtures, often appearing on shows promoted by Connie B. Gay. Too Many Dogs Music presents a double-handful of artists and bands in the D.C. area who are part of a growing country music scene. We call it alternative country because it is the alternative to what is played on the radio-- watered-down rock and roll passing as country. Many of the artists on this recording have been struggling for years in the DC country underground, keeping REAL country music alive.
