📋 About This Mod
INDEPENDENCE RADIO
Hot biscuits, and sugar in your coffee Pure corn mash, 100 proof, 25¢ a gallon
Gets down in the young folk's heels, so's they can't keep from dancin'
UPDATE:Reduced volume, Reduced Size, 1 single new track*
INDEPENDENCE RADIO Brings you 140 tracks featuring old-time, blues, folk and country. These tracks are mostly drawn from the pre-Atomic Era of the 20's and 30's, but I have selected songs I feel compliment the fallout universe, both in theme and tone. Most songs feature either guitar, violin, banjo, or some combination thereof. The songs themselves are quite varied, ranging from upbeat to somber, vocally driven to instrumental, and covering a number of distinct genres and traditions included in the catch-alls "old time" and "folk".
Perfect for listening to while you roam the Mojave, scalp raiders, motionlessly stare into the middle distance while clutching your gun for hours, or whatever it is your NV characters do.
This mod was originally made for some other game, but it has now finally come to its intended home, the Mojave Wasteland. Does New Vegas need a new radio mod in 2018? Probably not. But I invite you to change up the radio load-out you've used in your last 200 playthroughs; I guarantee songs you've never heard before, and that fit well into the Fallout setting.

EXPERIMENTAL LORE SECTION
When the Desert Rangers began to filter into Nevada in greater numbers from out east, they brought many things with them: Their mastery of tracking and bushcraft; their homespun folk lore; a finely honed sense of frontier justice; and, perhaps most notably, a sizeable
