There's some good stuff coming out, out West.
There are some very good female leads right now, of whom those are two. Country music has often had strong females -- perhaps most famously Dolly Parton, but definitely including Loretta Lynn, Jesee Colter, Patsy Cline, and of course Tammy Wynette. Western music hasn't had as many, but in the current moment there are quite a few good ones. Here's another one I like, a former schoolteacher who decided she'd rather sing than teach.
Lot's of good stuff. It's strange that radio & the super star spots are all pop country but there's this whole world of really good C & W performers out there that you don't hear about unless you're looking for them.
