What’s your alternative folk and country songs playlist? If you’re like me, you spend a lot of time stuck in traffic listening to the radio.
When I’m bored with the top 40 or have heard them all a million times, I turn to Spotify for something new and fresh.
The thing about music is that it can brighten your day. The right song could put you in the perfect mood for work, or even help you through a tough situation, or the horrible traffic.
The following is a list of songs I’ve compiled over time which I consider too good to not share with the world. I wanted to share these great musicians that I’ve been following over the past couple of months, not only recently.
There are tons of people out there sharing their music on YouTube and other social media sites, but I wanted to find people who are able to keep things interesting, unique and fun. These guys are doing just that.
You can listen to and follow our playlist on Spotify, or check out each artist below individually by scrolling down the page.

1) HD HAUSMANN – Far Unseen
If you’re looking for new music to listen to, look no further than HD HAUSMANN‘s single Far Unseen.
The UK-based artist’s latest release is a folky, electronic pop soundscape with male vocals and dark-pop vibes. The song features synths and guitars that are layered into a soundscape that will make you want to turn up the volume and relax.
The song reminds me of what would happen if Bon Iver teamed up with Bonobo for an album. If you like Bon Iver’s folktronica but wish there were more synth elements then this might be your jam!
