Help with Christian country and bluegrass

[s1mp13m4n]

Hello. I enjoy country music but know little of Christian country. What are some popular artists....that are good. My dad love bluegrass....the older stuff that he grew up with, and he like Gospel Bluegrass but is not saved. What can I find for him on CD that I can get for him that he would like? I do not like southern gospel music.

Paul Overstreet comes to mind. He's country, not bluegrass. I'm not sure if he's done anything recently, but he had some decent albums back in the '90s. And I certainly second Holly's suggestion of Alison Krauss - can not go wrong with her.

^^^ Paul is one of the best, at least to me anyways! I love his song named "Love Helps Those Who Can Not Help Themselves".

God bless you and him always!!!

P.S. I actually got to meet him at my one and only Fan Fair (CMA Music Festival) back in 2000 and he couldn't have been more of a gentleman.

Flatt & Scruggs (They have a greatest hits CD recorded in 1962) That has been remasterd and Sounds great.

Two more really good acts are Sonya Isaacs and the Cox family.

God bless you and them always!!!

Have you tried Dailey and Vincent? They have three Gospel albums out and have appeared on several Bill Gaither "Homecoming" CDs.
