Need help with Country Mix

[Omnipotent]

My gf and I are going on a long drive, ( 8 hours), down to NC this weekend. I am not a big fan of country, she LOVES it, so I plan on making a mix for her to listen too. She loves Zac Brown band, songs like Whatever it is, and Highway 20, other than that I am blank. If you guys can help me make a good list that hit those songs genre, I would appreciate that. Thanks!

Could you be more specific? What kind of country are we talking about here?

I can give you a list of alt-country and southern folk/rock thats actually amazing/good music, or I can talk to you about Toby Keith/Tim McGraw etc that my dad used to make me listen to on car trips when I was a kid.

For the former may I suggest the entire catalogue of:
Neko Case
Steve Earle
Lynyrd Skynyrd

to start you off in the former direction.

Just the modern hits that everyone likes. I've heard Lady Antabellum and Rascal Flatts are huge, I wanna stick to 2005+. Country as in those people.

Isn't really teh right crowd to ask I guess, idk that many people on here that listen to 2005+ country lol.

Tell her to shut up and listen to good music. Either she does and gets a taste for it, or she gets offended, you go alone and listen to whatever the fuck. Either way you win.

Pretty much this. People who enjoy only commercial hiphop/country are fucking retarded when the indie/underground of both genres is among some of the best music being currently made.
