Rebel Country

A celebration of an exciting crop of country music artists taking the genre by storm, changing the game and transforming the genre in the modern age.

The unique story of a select group of artists who have emerged in recent years to take the country music industry by storm. They're transforming the genre in the modern age, both from within Nashville’s country scene and from the ‘outside’.

Told using archive footage and contributions from such artists as Lainey Wilson, Blanco Brown, Lindsay Ell, Frank Ray, Breland and Sam Williams, as well as journalists, historians and musicologists, this documentary explores and celebrates how country music is undergoing a revolution as boundary-pushing rebels challenge the rules of the game.
