You would probably be interested in the Cowpunk movement of the mid-1980s:

A precursor to the alternative country-rock of the decade to follow, Cowpunk was a 1980s phenomenon incorporating the mood and texture of traditional country music with the energy and attitude of punk.
Bands like the Beat Farmers, Rank and File, Green on Red, Lone Justice etc.
