Acoustic Country

Acoustic country is a Spotify label for country music played mainly on acoustic instruments, with little or no electric guitar or heavy studio production.

It is a description more than a genre with its own history. The songs rely on acoustic guitar, and sometimes fiddle, banjo, mandolin or dobro, with the voice and the words up front. That gives it a quieter, more stripped-back feel than radio country. It sits close to folk, bluegrass and Americana.
