Electronic pitch correction that gave us pretty faces lip synching to their studio pitch corrected vocals in live performance was a curse.

I'm not sure where you draw the line for modern singing styles. I am certainly more inclined to listen to Doc Watson than FM dial pop music. In my truck I've got SiriusXM which of late I've been listening to the Outlaw Country channel which is actually far more diverse than the name implies. On Spotify I listen to people you may have never heard of, but I don't think that they are what you are thinking of for modern singing styles.
