Apps for your country era

From fashion and film to music and more, everyone seems to be embracing their inner country star. Whether it’s shopping for Western wear or streaming songs that’ll have you two-stepping in no time, read on to find apps that’ll help you get a little bit of country in your life.

In the world of fashion, the most visible sign of the current country moment is the cowboy hat. But we're also seeing a broader embrace of Western wear: denim-on-denim looks, fringe detailing, intricate embroidery, classic cowboy boots, and even the return of embellished "Nudie suits" are gracing runways and red carpets.

Movies and shows are also heading out west in a big way. Classic Westerns will always have a place in our hearts, but movies like Sinners (now streaming on Max) are giving the classic film genre a fresh spin with supernatural storylines and social commentary. Even the Oscar-winning Brokeback Mountain was back in theaters this year. And don’t forget the Dutton family – there have already been two Yellowstone spin-off series, with two more in the works.

But perhaps nowhere is the country trend more evident and impactful than in music. Artists from across genres are incorporating country elements, blurring lines and expanding definitions. Morgan Wallen has one of the biggest albums of the year, and Chappell Roan even added a little twang to her latest single, “The Giver.” Then of course there's Beyoncé, whose Cowboy Carter album almost single-handedly brought the country vibe to a wider audience last year.
