Pitchfork's the Story of Outlaw Country in 33 Songs

In compiling these 33 representative songs, we've tried to keep our definition of "outlaw country" as broad as possible, in order to track many of its phases and stages. Our list, while by no means exhaustive, traces this music's grit and glory from its contested origins to the present moment, from Texas dancehalls to streaming playlists, from Johnny Cash to Miranda Lambert.
