Now that the Overlooked Tracks podcast is taking a break from traveling and give the magical musical bus a good tune-up, itâs time to give a music genre some exposure and try to move away from a label that country music has possessed for a long time and try to simply move away from that not so good label and reputation of the past. Â When exploring this genre and connected with some music artists on social media, it is for sure that country music has got a bad rap. Â Opening up the mind up a bit and taking steps to learn about country music can help you learn one thing:
THERE SOME DAMN GOOD MUSIC OUT THERE!!Â
It took a bit, but now we will present to you 5 music artists that are seriously worth a listen and for you, the listener to support these and many more country music artists as much as possible. No, I wonât get on a horse and ride into the sunset â Iâm sitting on my big butt for this episode and give you gems, courtesy of the Overlooked Tracks podcast.

Monday Jun 28, 2021
It is time to get back on the magical music and explores more jewels in music with part 2 of the Asian Excursion â also called Episode #21 of the Overlooked Tracks podcast. My name is Kenny Chiba and I had to reorganize the arrangement of this podcast because to tell it truthfully, it was overwhelming to get all types of music from the Asian Continent between episodes 20 and 21.
I had to pump the brakes and come to realize that I will continue to do my best to provide you the very best at music thatâs being overlooked, but I REALLY NEED YOUR HELP on finding musical gems, so go to www.overlookedtracks.com/contact to give feedback and suggestions on music, go to Twitter and looked âOVERLOOKEDTRAXâ to Direct Message me and guide me to a direction where great music is being buried and needs to be dug up and give life to the rest of us.
Music is the source of expression, the source of both mental and physical power and most of all to sooth the soul of the beauty and the beast. In other words, Music should be simply shared throughout our lives to live the best lives we can.
