I've listed this article for peer review because I want to get it to GA. I seem to be the main contributor for country music GAs around here, so I'm following what worked with Joe Diffie, Shenandoah (band), The Kentucky Headhunters and Clay Walker as far as structure. There are already a couple things I know I need to work on (finding a wider scope of album reviews, expanding "musical styles" and sourcing the awards), but besides that, what else should be worked on?

- The year by year of Musical career makes this article seem more like a list of their albums; I would say the current length and content is giving it undue weight when compared to the rest of the other sections. This section probably requires pruning; the other sections should require more substantial expansions. I spot John Hood's interview with Troy Gentry in Rosanne Cash's Country Music Reader. Richard Carlin's brief entry in Country seems to have some little bits not in this article (or could be starting grounds to find the sources for them if this publication is deemed unreliable). Eddie Montgomery told a bit of his life in Charles Daniels's Growing Up Country He was also profiled (quite a big article) in Lisa Wysocky's Horse Country. He also revealed he was inspired by B Westerns (although I am not certain if this is significant to warrant notice) in American Cowboy. John Hartigan's Odd Tribes has an analysis on the band's "Hillbilly Shoes" and why it appeals to a certain crowd; it also states the band as "proudly waving the hillbilly banner" during the genre's resurgence. All in all, I think there are still several sources that could flesh the other sections (History, Musical styles, Personal life) and thereby better balance this article.
