You'll find quite a few of the most popular songs are remakes from other current artists or new spin on old songs.
One of my favorite songs is LA County by John D Hale Band....I can't find a good youtube of any quality....but that's a Lyle Lovett Song, and coincidently, Lyle Lovett is sitting in number 1 on the chart with Pat Green today.
Alot of these bands are friends, and there are a lot of opportunities to see 2-3-4 of the leads playing accoustic in small venues when they aren't touring, and they'll play each other's songs.
Sturgil's version of Medicine Springs is awesome. I can't embed video from ipad or I would.
Some of these guys, I much prefer live....prime example is Jason Eady. I enjoy his live stuff much more than the production sound.
IF you're wanting to "cruise" Red Dirt songs, do a youtube search of "Music Fog" sessions.
