While much of modern country radio chased pop hooks and trap drums, Pardi doubled down on pedal steel, fiddle, and a two-step you can actually dance to. That stubbornness paid ...

There's a particular kind of guitar riff — dusty, unhurried, a little bit heartbroken — that made a Texas songwriter named Dylan Gossett impossible to ignore.
