Southern Country Magazine, an every day story of country music folk on the UK scene, is in its 31st year of publication. Southern Country Magazine is in its 31st year and we dedicate its pages to the furtherance of live country music in the UK. Sadly with times as they are, there are a lot of acts who have given in to the temptation to use modern technology and often what you hear is not what you see! However, take heart, there are some very good live bands around, including our multi-award winning Tom Williams Band, and the Garry Blackmore Band, twice Club Choice Award winners The Diesel Cowboys, Readers' Choice Band of the Year winner John McCane & Last Of The Breed, as well as excellent bands like The Swing Commanders, Henry Smith's Country Dreams, West Virginia, Kay "D" and the Redneck Rodeo's, Dusty Rhodes Band, First Chapter, and Ridgeway Country. There are many types of country music fan, those who like to sit and listen in concert, those who like to ballroom dance, incorporating two step and West Coast swing or do freestyle bopping, those who like to Western Partner or Line Dance, and those who like to dress Western, and do shoot outs, and displays for charity. We get visited by some of the top US and Irish stars, but mostly are served by our own loyal musicians and singers who do a grand job of bringing the latest country hits into the club and festival scene as well as keeping the old songs alive. We also get visited by European artists and some of the lesser known but just as well loved Americans. The magazine contains letters, general country music news, artiste news, radio news, album reviews, Country Hotdisc Top 40, plus festival, club and theatre reviews, many advertisements featuring artistes, all manner of products and events, as well as recording studios etc. and dances for those who want to learn to dance. The big interest is for the extensive gig guide covering over 400 clubs and venues.
Our July front cover features 'Stephen Smyth'. Read all about Stephen on page 3. Our August front cover features 'Hayley Oliver Band' and will be published on 24th July. It is available by subscription or you can pick one up at your local Country Music club. If your club doesn't sell the magazine, why not ask them if they could or perhaps you could become a distributor yourself and earn some commission in the process.
Southern Country Magazine is aimed at promoting country music in Southern England. All articles and advertisements are published in good faith and we cannot accept responsibility for any inaccuracies or misrepresentations in either the publication or this website.
