I'd have to agree.

A new study conducted by Spotify with the help of a new technology that helps 'personalize user experience' by changing the tone of voice used in spoken messages delivered within the service.

5,808 volunteers took a personality test that rates openness, conscientiousness, extroversion, agreeableness, and emotional stability. Apparently, the music you listen to can indicate your personality type and this study found country fans are more extroverted!

The test rated people who listened to country music as more outgoing, while those who enjoy Blues are more emotionally stable.  If you’re into Punk music, you’re more than likely to be more anti-social and emotionally unstable then fans of other genres. Fans of soul music are more open and conscious.

The full study was published in the journal Social Psychological and Personality Science. I think country music fans are just more fun! You can read more about this study here.
