The Alt-Country Show

an alternative to mainstream and terrestrial country music.

The Alt-Country show began in 2007, when host Emily Smith set out to find bands similar to Wilco, Old 97s, Silver Jews and local groups she'd fallen in love with around her home state of Florida (The Heathens, Band Marino, The Ones to Blame). With over 15 years of music discovery experience, Emily has become quite adept at seeking out music and curating playlists full of artists from across the globe.

Tune in monthly for the best in alternative country, honky-tonk, Americana, roots, cosmic country, folk, blues, and more. Plus, get the latest updates on tours, album releases, and show reviews. The Alt-Country Show puts your terrestrial country station to shame. Get back to the roots of country music and enjoy a little indie flare.
