Country Music Hall of Fame Unveils New Book ‘In-Law Country’

by Barbara

The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum has announced the release of In-Law Country: How Emmylou Harris, Rosanne Cash and Their Circle Fashioned a New Kind of Country Music, 1968-1985, written by Geoffrey Himes. This new book delves into a transformative era in country music history, where a group of outsiders reshaped the genre’s sound and narrative, ultimately becoming influential insiders.

In-Law Country offers a blend of biography and musical analysis, chronicling how artists, musicians, and producers like Emmylou Harris, Rosanne Cash, Guy Clark, Rodney Crowell, Gram Parsons, Ricky Skaggs, Clarence White, and Townes Van Zandt brought new perspectives and innovations to traditional country music. Himes’ work seeks to define this significant, yet previously unnamed movement by exploring the lives and landmark contributions of its key figures.

Published by the museum’s CMF Press, the book is available in both hardcover and paperback editions. While currently sold on the museum’s website and in its retail store, it will also be available widely in bookstores and online outlets starting December 10, thanks to a distribution partnership with the University of Illinois Press.
