No, I’m not a real estate person trying to sell you a cabin… you’ll get the Top 10 Americana Music tunes I’d make sure I had lined up for you when you got out of cell range and dipped out of radio range. Plus…as usual…we’ll throw in some new tunes with their eye on making it around the campfire!

Not much change on the countdown this week as the Flatlands swelters in a lounge of heat and humidity. The worst of it is coming this weekend, so we’ll pack extra ice and cold adult beverages for you! One new entry to the Top 10 – Billy Strings comes in like a fresh breeze – and hits #5!

Number 1 on the Countdown remains the same – week 2 at the top of the charts for The Avett Brothers “High Steppin'”

2. Yola “Love All Night (Work All Day)”

3. Lukas Nelson & The Promise of the Real “Bad Case”

These tunes are fighting through the heat to earn some love in the Top 10 – close…but, not quite there yet!

Maybe it’s the old radio guy in me…but I love a good chart. Since I don’t have a show (right now, anyway) – this chart is different. Here are the top songs I’d tell you to grab if you’re in a cabin in the Flatlands and your phone can only hold a 10 pack. 12 pack in the fridge, 10 pack on the phone.

Anyway, I’ll normally be doing this on Monday, but wanted to spend a little extra on the first one…
