Event information

KEVIN MONTGOMERY is an American singer, songwriter.
Nashville plays a big part in Montgomery's development as a songwriter. His parents got married on a Thursday night in Littlefield, Texas so they could be at the Grand Ole Opry on Saturday night. Dad wrote songs for and played with Buddy Holly. Mom sang with Elvis (suspicious minds) and their next-door neighbour was Patsy Cline.
Kevin Montgomery's recording career began with his debut album "Fear Nothing" on A&M Records in 1993. He has toured the US with acts including Sheryl Crowe, Stephen Stills and David Crosby and featured on a duet with Mary Chapin-Carpenter on the 1996 Buddy Holly Tribute album "Not Fade Away" singing his father's composition "Wishing", his father also co-producing the track.

Montgomery has written songs for Juice Newton and Martina McBride. Sang on Lee Ann Womack's "I Hope You Dance".....his debut album on A&M Records was critically acclaimed. He has released several records since independently and toured relentlessly, including four 50 States and 50 Days tours.
