THE END OF DAYS: WHEN THE FRENCH OUT COUNTRY OUR SINGERS
When I saw them for the first time, I really thought they were American...I saw a live acoustic version and the lead singer (her name's Rosemary) played up the twang. The Neil Young harmonica, the steel guitar, the stand-up bass...it tricked me good.
On the studio version, you can catch a couple of words that she doesn't completely manage to hide behind an affected twang (last time I checked grass doesn't have an "h").
Anyway, it doesn't really matter where they're from, I like this song:
