Are you familiar with country music? Its a type of music that originated in the southern U.S. back in the 1920s.
I am familiar with country music.  Do you have a favorite artist?
I'm not too familiar with modern country artists. When I was younger, I listened to older stuff - fiddle tunes, ballads, and cowboy songs, mostly.
My favorite country musician is Faith Hill.  She is extremely talented and beautiful. 
I've heard some of her music before, she's really popular. I'm pretty sure she's married to the singer Tim McGraw.
Indeed she is.  I am jealous.  I do enjoy his music as well though.  
Taylor Swift started out making country music as well. It's funny to think about, because she's such a big pop music star now.
That is a big criticism of country music nowadays.  It seems to have more of a pop tune to it.  There are still many musicians who still stay true to the roots of country music twang.
Yes, country pop music. A little bit country, a little bit pop, and a little bit rock. You either love it or hate it!
I think Taylor Swift has moved toward pop to satisfy her fan base.
