While Kenny Foster
isn’t exactly ‘new’ to country music, the momentum behind the unmistakable
balladeer’s 2017 release ‘Deep Cuts’ has a host of new fans flocking to the raw
grit and brutal honesty of Foster’s remarkably mature, thoughtful and
unapologetic songwriting. Lush with real instruments, astute observations and
the deconstruction of one man’s head and heart, Foster has built a monument to
the American experience that seeks to universalise the specific, and embody the
very specific ways that we are all very much the same. While the pop-laden
sounds of country radio have been trending away from the genre’s organic roots
in recent times, Foster makes a case for preserving the foundations of country
music while still allowing it the chance to comment on and even pine over the
ever-evolving landscape.
Authentic. Accessible. This timeless collection of songs will echo through the annuls of the story that birthed a great American tradition, and gave words to a nation seeking to reflect its own identity. A welcomed ‘new’ voice may just have us longing for our past, and at the same time, looking ahead at how we will preserve what has always been good, and right, and true.
Foster has shared the stage with artists including Maren Morris, Kacey Musgraves, Brothers Osborne, Old Dominion, Lady Antebellum, Marc Broussard, Butch Walker, Buddy Miller and countless others, along with multiple appearances at the ACM and CMA music festivals.
