Chanteur
Country US né William Kenneth Alphin, le 1er Novembre 1963 à Culpepper (Virginie). Big Kenny fait parti du duo
Big & Rich
Although
born and raised in rural Virginia, Kenny Alphin made his name (literally) after
moving to Nashville, where he rechristened himself Big Kenny and found platinum
success as one half of the country duo Big &
Rich. Known for their rowdy humor and willingness to embrace multiple
genres, Big & Rich scored their first
string of hits with 2004's Horse of a Different Color. Big Kenny and
John Rich had established their
Nashville credentials long before the album's release, though, with both
musicians releasing solo records in 1999 and, two years later, co-founding a
weekly songwriters' roundtable called the MuzikMafia. Moreover, they'd already
cut their teeth in full-fledged bands (Kenny fronted the short-lived luvjOi,
while Rich logged several years as the
bassist of Lonestar). Such experience
allowed Big & Rich to establish an
audience quickly, and Horse of a Different Color sold more than three
million copies as a result. In addition to co-writing much of his own band's
material, Big Kenny penned songs for other artists, including the title track
for Gretchen Wilson's Here for
the Party and the chart-topping single "Last Dollar (Fly Away)" for
Tim McGraw. He also continued releasing
material with Big & Rich and maintained
a concurrent solo career, with The Quiet Times of a Rock and Roll Farm Boy
marking his second solo album in 2009
