Outlaw Country is a subgenre of country music that originated in the late 1960s and early 1970s. It is characterized by a blend of traditional country music and rock and roll, and is often associated with a "rebel" attitude. Outlaw Country is often seen as a reaction to the slick, polished sound of the Nashville establishment. It is characterized by a raw, edgy sound, with lyrics that often deal with themes of rebellion, freedom, and living life on one's own terms. Artists associated with the genre include Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Johnny Cash, and Kris Kristofferson.
