I've been on a bit of a country music kick this month,
Someone to keep an eye out for is Swift Current, Saskatchewan's Colter Wall.
Teenaged Colter received major USA attention in Country music scene a couple years ago when Hollywood connections got his songs featured in tv's
Dog the Bounty Hunter and a couple of his fans that happen to be American pro-wrestlers raved about his music, also Colter's single 'Sleeping on the Blacktop' was featured in Jeff Bridges' and Chris Pine's Best Picture Oscar nominated
Hell or High Water movie released last year.

Described by many as the next Johnny Cash, Colter was at Emmylou Harris' Skyville Live Concert in Tennessee a few months ago, & he was featured at SXSW in Austin last month.
