The Best of No Depression by Grant Alden

Twenty-five of the best and most representative articles from No Depression, the definitive magazine of alternative country music
Praise for No Depression: No Depression "is in many ways the prototypical peer-group publication that comes along once in a generation and attracts and defines its collective audience of readers, in much the same way that the young rock magazines Rolling Stone, Crawdaddy, and Creem did decades ago" Chet Flippo, Billboard "For those who crave that tasty trail mix of traditional country, punk, folk, and rock that goes under the moniker alt country or Americana, there is no finer or more thorough source for news, reviews, and profiles [than No Depression]. We adore the long chewy portraits of the genre's big names, and the dispatches from concertland." Chicago Tribune "The bible for [alternative country] listeners." U.S. News & World Report "The performers chronicled here range from the near-mainstream ... to the more obscure ... there are some memorable moments."--Times Literary Supplement, 17 November, 2006

Grant Alden and Peter Blackstock founded No Depression in 1995 in Seattle, Washington, and have been its editors ever since. They are also the magazine's publishers (along with Kyla Fairchild). Alden lives in Morehead, Kentucky, and Blackstock lives in Poulsbo, Washington.
