The moment

Metamodern Sounds in Country Music was three months old — the record about turtles, love, and DMT that made an outlaw-voiced Kentucky traditionalist the most argued-about man in country music. The rooms hadn't caught up yet: this was the Iron Horse, a Northampton club that seats a couple hundred. Within two years he'd sold out arenas, won the country-album Grammy, and been nominated for Album of the Year against Beyoncé and Adele. One of the steepest before-pictures in the archive.
