I Am Crowning Sam Barber As "The Next Big Thing" In Outlaw Country Music

I don't know if it is my age, the era we live in, or what, but I am finding it way more difficult to find new music than I used to. I don't drive anymore so I don't get the radio plays and the internet is too big to know where to start. It's overwhelming I just kind of keep listening to the stuff I've been listening to. Luckily...I have a guy I can ask. Ed Warm. The Country Music King of Chicago. If you know Joes On Weed or The Smokeout...that's Ed. Nobody has his finger on the pulse more than him and since I've known him for like 10 years now he can kinda cherry pick artists that I would like. Sam Barber is that guy. Apple Music makes it seem like he doesn't even have a full album yet, but the singles and EPs he's released are INCREDIBLE. I don't claim to have an ear for music necessarily. I just like what I like and I feel like there's a good amount of you on here that are in the same camp as me. This dude is the next in line with Sturgill, Childers, Zach Bryan, etc. The song above has been on repeat all day. He has one of those voices that reverberates in your ribcage. Sam Barber...crown him
