Kenny Orts, My Hometown

Country music fans always enjoy songs that bring them back to their roots. Kenny Orts' new album, "My Hometown", will definitely do that. The title track tells of how Kenny desires to get back to the good old days when everyone knew everyone in their small town and friendliness was the main objective. The 1980's style country beat and steel guitar makes this song even more enjoyable than it already is. Another song on this album that will bring a lot of country music fans home is, "You're Still On My Mind". Kenny's southern drawl vocals and two step rhythm on this track will please any lover of dancehall style country music. The song, "My Little Man," tells a warming story about a father who loves his son so much he goes as far as to drive all night just to make it to his birthday party. This song is sure to touch your heart and bring a smile to your face. Any artist who can do that, is an example of true talent. The dancehalls may be closed, but if you invite your friends over and play the track, "It's Only Cause You're Lonely," you can have your own line dance party in your home; at least that's what the beat resembles. The final track is super fitting for Texas Pride. "Good Ole Texas Dancehall" is not only a superb self penned composition by Kenny , but the track resembles the Texas music scene at it's finest. This album is sure to please anyone who enjoys wonderful music with creative styles. This recording is free for listening on Spotify and YouTube and you can order your own CD copy at kennyortsmusic.com.
