October 28 - Brad Paisley, new traditionalist of the 2000s (decade).

I'm pretty much considered a new traditionalist, but I do have R&B and pop roots mixed in.

Fashion experts suggest a cut they call "new traditionalist."

Even ads are suddenly talking about "the new traditionalist."

But the new traditionalists seem less unhappy about the passing of a way of life than eager to borrow its aura.

The new traditionalists broke through country's image as old-fogy music but only temporarily shook up its establishment.

The honky-tonk that new traditionalists look back to wasn't a formula.

For the new traditionalists, however, the present is also sentimentalized; the past is just one more comfy stage set.

By reviving the honky-tonk verities, new traditionalists have shown that the old sound of country still speaks to the present.

The new traditionalists combined a fierce allegiance to country's roots with rebelliousness against its current stagnation.
