Acoustic Breakdown Has Gone Country! And Introducing Emily West...

Okay okay, so the usual story about being very busy and not being able to blog in *gosh* a YEAR?! Terrible I know but Acousic Breakdown is BACK and not only that - it's GONE COUNTRY!

No longer will we hide behind the pretence that this is the home for 'acoustic' music (aka acoustic country); it is time to change the incredible FEAR people outside of the US have of country music. It is the best genre out there and counts literally some of the world's finest songwriters, singers and musicians amongst its representatives. It is also one of the most fiercely defended and adored format whilst being unceremoniously (and unfairly) ridiculed, ignored and overlooked by others, particularly outside of the United States.

So to kick things off, check out the video of 'Blue Sky' by Capitol Nashville's brightest new star, Emily West. The track features non other than West's label-mate and the current king of country, Keith Urban. Need I say more?
