Big Kenny, known as one-half of country duo Big & Rich, has unveiled his new musical brainchild, Electro Shine. The musical project brings together an eclectic fusion of beats, instrumentation and feel-good lyrics, all of which can be heard in the first two remix releases. Check out more about project here!
Big Kenny was always the more interesting half of Big & Rich, with his idiosyncratic, almost cartoonish croon and his colorful personality. He also has an unusual storytelling style but what happens when he takes a straight forward approach, like he does here?
Known to the world as 1/2 of the Big & Rich team, Big Kenny certainly isn't your average solo artist. Does his second solo album (and 1st since becoming a known commodity) follow the B&R sound or a different, more interesting one?
There are very few artists who walk the walk when they talk the talk. Big Kenny is one of the few who do. In an exclusive interview, Big Kenny talked to Roughstock about a variety of things, including his experience in the Sudan, the internet and his new album.
Big Kenny has recently scored a Top 40 hit with his debut single "Long After I'm Gone" and is about to release his album The Quiet Times of a Rock And Roll Farm Boy on his own record label, Love Everybody/Glotown/Bigger Picture. Listen to it here before you can buy it.
As an act with few true radio hits, a Greatest Hits project for Big & Rich might seem like a little stretch but if you consider the fact that the duo's albums were always more than their radio hits, the time is probably ripe for such a CD.
After finally establishing himself as one-half of the popular duo Big & Rich, Big Kenny is currently a judge on the latest edition of "Can You Duet." With is personality to love everybody well documented, how will he translate that to a solo country career?
