Chris Stapleton - Arkansas https://youtu.be/DRReg08kRrIBilly
“Amazing! I’ll be working with Jaco Pastorius, Charlie Parker, Art Tatum, and Buddy Rich, and you’re telling me it’s not that great of a gig?
“Well…” Saint Peter, hesitated, “God’s got this girlfriend who thinks she can sing…”

Chris Stapleton is popular for sure. He is also considered to be a modern country artist. However I consider most of his songs owes more to the blues than to country. "Tennessee Whiskey" is a good example. Compare +++ THIS +++ version of "Tennessee Whiskey" to +++ THIS +++ song by Chris Stapleton. Yes they are two songs sharing the same name, "Tennessee Whiskey". But the first song by George Jones is undeniably country while the song by Chris Stapleton sounds like the blues to me.

Hey Jim,
You can sure hear the blues in that opening figure he does in Arkansas.
Country has evolved over the years. I think those guys are pretty smart. As rock sort of lost a bit of steam the country guys said "hey, lets steal this rock stuff and add a little peddle steel and call it country"...lol
Three chord rock not so well hidden behind the country twang with a little blues added in for good measure.
No matter...I never get tired listening to songs about trucks, mud, beer, and good lookin women. What's not to like?
Well, you need to be pretty tall to stand up to the likes of George Jones.
I listen to Chris sing "Tennessee Whiskey" at "Farm Aid". I thought he did a good job, he is no George Jones or George Strait but I like him just like he is.
Everyone knows I can't sing but put me in the tubes in London and let me sing "All My X's Live in Texas" and I will do allright...lol
THe vocal may be out of tune and out of time but it will be the real thing from Texas...lol

Jamey Johnson is a fine song writer that you don't hear much about anymore. His main claim to fame is George Straits version of Jamey's song, +++ Give It Away +++

All good choices y'all. Hey, the OP was about Band-in-a-Box styles that capture the flavor of such artists. Do we have any more recommendations on actual BIAB STYLES people are using to WRITE songs in these veins????

Hi David ... I don't know if this is too dated for your use, but I like it quite a bit. If it helps, great. If not, nothing lost but a few minutes. Good luck with you and your future country stars stars. It's more on the softer side of country. Will look for others, more up-tempo, I might have used somewhere along the way.

I think it fits modern country pop, too.) https://soundcloud.com/alananddi/homesick-and-blueFile:_Homesick And Blue.SGU Key=C , Tempo 80, Length (m:s)=4:18 Style is _HOMESIK.STY (Homesick Soft Pop Serenade) RealTracks in style: ~2474:Bass, Acoustic, Held Ev 085 RealTracks in style: 2195:Piano, ElectricVintage, Rhythm CoolJazzPopHeld Ev 085 RealTracks in style: 3059:Guitar, Acoustic, Rhythm Muted16thsFintan Ev16 080 RealTracks in song: 2883:Pedal Steel, Background CountryEddy12-key Ev 085 RealTracks in song: 1947:Mandolin, Rhythm PopModernGrooveAndy Ev16 075 RealTracks in song: 626:Harmonica, Background Travis Ev 085 RealDrums in Song: BluesRockSlowEv^2-a:SideStick , b:Snare, HiHat
