1. Sixteen Horsepower
2. Lucinda Williams
3. The Builders and the Butchers
4. Jay Munly
5. The Carter Family

Good list, Jay Munly is quite possibly one of the best Country artists to come about in the last ten years. I recently got The Builders and the Butchers first album and was fairly impressed by it, however I have yet to get their follow up. 16 Horsepower are also one of the best country acts to come out in the last 20 years and really helped kick off the Gothic Country genre (which I'm particularly fond of).

Neil Young (if that counts)
Alan Jackson. Just because he sings that song 'Chattahootchie', and thats one funky but cool song.
Billy Ray Cyrus.
