Superb song..is the album as good do you reckon?
Yes, it is, but I'm biased 'cos they are one of my favourite bands

Their style mixes "Southern Rock" to Country and points in between.

Just looked on itunes and she has made loads of albums so what are her best one's do you think then I would look at ebay on locate them.
I would say don't! You'll hear big hat nobbers like Kenny Cheeseknee but you won't hear fiddle and steel which is what the OP wants. Try Internet radio, US classic country or bluegrass stations.
Try the Transatlantic Sessions, it's a bunch of musicians (some very well known, others less so) playing a mixture of bluegrass, Irish and Scottish traditional music. It works surprisingly well.
Must be my age but I've got into country and western.
This is a good place to start, Boon (her first five albums for a pretty reasonable price)...

The Transatlantic Sessions consist of very high-quality musicians, playing an interesting and entertaining blend of music. When we had the pub, some of them came and played for us; they were/are great musicians and really nice people too. Aly Bain is a great guy, but he's a mate as well as a Shetlander, so I've got to say that.Another bonus, is that the musicians are/were great company in the bar afterwards and keen to stay up till the small hours for a dram or two.

Being a bit pedantic, Western (aka Western Swing) is a bit different
I have been watching a young bluegrass band on Youtube the past couple of years called the Tuttles with AJ Lee. They are some very talented young pickers and singers, their father taught them and also plays in the band. AJ Lee is a excellent young singer that joins them. The Tuttle kids are all excellent pickers and the daughter Molly is an excellent singer and outstanding picker. They are out of San Francisco, which sort of surprised me. They never really get close enough to my area for me to get a chance to go see them, but I will if I get a chance. It has been fun watching them grow up on Youtube.
They don't do strictly bluegrass either but do great bluegrass when they do it. This is one of their slower songs but still one of the tunes they do that I like and it is from a recent show.
an older one
On a less serious note has anyone seen Hayseed Dixie? We saw them a year or two ago at the O2 Academy in Newcastle. I didn't know what to expect but they were brilliant, a really fun night out. They do bluegrass covers of rock anthems as well as their own originals, The Ace of Spades and Bohemian Rhapsody like you've never heard them before - Genius
