X Country in my opinion is one of XM’s hidden gems. The name of the channel is somewhat misleading. X Country has a new show (well its 3 weeks old) called Smoke Stack. XM describes it as:

The Southern Boogie Show hosted by the band Blackfoot. 4 hours of new and old Southern Rock and Rockin’ Country from legends like Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Allman Brothers, and the Charlie Daniels Band, plus X Country favorites, Cross Canadian Ragweed, Shooter Jennings, Webb Wilder, and Reckless Kelly.

This show is slowly becoming a favorite of mine. I’ve often thought why XM doesnt have a channel dedicated to this genre. I wouldnt mind seeing XMRO experimenting with something like this online. The reaction around the XM nation seems to be very positive towards this show.

Anyone else catch on to this show yet? Check it out Saturday @ 8 pm ET on XM 12. It’s definitely not Country…so dont be fooled by the channel name.
