If there is some country music playing ambiently in a location it can really set either a peaceful or an ominous mood. I don't think country rock works nearly so well for this.
It's a calm, quiet night. It's dark out and comfortably chilly so there aren't people out and about but the sidewalks are lit by the streetlights reflecting off the fresh snow and a lot of houses have Christmas lights on. I was walking down the quiet street to my house and I walked by a parked van that was playing some music just loudly enough to hear as I pass. A nice little moment
I just mean classic country is more likely to be melancholic. reflecting on this
