Discoveries
It’s been a while since we’ve heard new cowboy songs and songs of rodeo and bull riding. “Broken Bones” by Kelly Keening caught our attention the other day, so let’s learn more about this talented artist.
When I first talked with Larry Massey it seemed like a normal conversation between friends of traditional country music. I knew Larry was an artist, and he simply said “I have a CD that’s getting some air-play in Dallas and Tyler Texas, Kentucky, Florida, and Sweden.” Then Larry Massey told me he has worked for the Postal Service for almost twenty-eight years, and said “It’s never been about the money. I just want people to hear my CD and hopefully like it.”
Every now and then we receive a CD that is new and fresh, and each song is written by the artist. Like a breath of fresh air, “Runnin’ With The Horses” is one such CD. From the first song titled “Box Of Memories” it is clear that Vela has a strong beautiful voice, and is dedicated to traditional country music.
Fred Uzzell has played non pedal steel guitar and dobro throughout the midwest for nearly 40 years. For the past 12 years he has been the featured steel guitar and dobro player at Annies Country Jubiliee in Tonganoxie Kansas. “Annies” is a 425 seat theatre style venue with shows every Saturday night.

Hack Martin has great music for you at his Myspace website. He said “I am definitely a Country Classic. In fact that was the name of one one of my bands back in the late 60′s and early 70′s. Oddly enough, my music is more popular these days in countries like New Zealand, Australia, Denmark, etc. than it is here in the U.S.” Visit his band website and enjoy some great country music.
Country music artist Jeannie James lives in a small village on the Pennines (which are hills) near a small town called Stalybridge which is in England UK. As we travel around the world in search of great traditional country music Stalybridge is our stop of the day.
I had the pleasure of speaking with Levi Coby today, a songwriter based in Scotland. In the office, and on Facebook, a bunch of us were just talking about traditional country music in other countries, so it was a perfect time to hear from this talented singer and songwriter.
From the desk of Ritchie Ritchison: I am a traditional country songwriter. My style is basically twang x humor. I write very straight country music with humorous lyrics.
This week I received a note from Nashville singer/songwriter Je’Ne West, a true blue country artist with a unique style. I went to Digital Rodeo to listen to Je’Ne’s material and was impressed.
