Your A-List: Best Country Singer or Group

You thought this would be competitive? Austin’s best country singer or group? Really? Really?

There’s only one Willie Nelson. And he won the A-List race. Again. And probably forever. This time with 41 percent of the ballots.

Western Swing vets Asleep at the Wheel boogied into second place with 12 percent, while hard-working Kevin Fowler took third with 10 percent. Jack Ingram and Dale Watson stayed pretty close with 8 and 6 percent respectively.

It drops off rather steeply after that: Pulling 4 percent or less were Derailers, Mother Truckers, Dale Watson, Heybale!, Kelly Willis, Alvin Crow, Pauline Reese and High Country, Jon Emery, Sunny Sweeney, James Hand, Wes Hayden, Cornell Hurd Band, Jesse Dayton and Roger Wallace.

Sounds like a music scene all to itself.
