Brandon Kinney

Brandon Kinney is reviving an irreverent form of country that follows in the footsteps of Country Music Hall of Famer Roger Miller. His debut album Smells Like Texas is loaded with love-inducing alcohol, a religious kook, a cranky wife, a masculine transvestite, a perpetual lounge lizard, a grandma with a biker boyfriend and a trailer-park beauty who’s the 21st century poster child for trashy women. It’s a laughable walk on the weird side—country with a smile. Kinney is also an established songwriter with single cuts that include Lonestar’s “You’re Like Coming Home,” Randy Houser’s “Boots On” and album tracks by Willie Nelson, Randy Travis, Kix Brooks, Casey James, Tracy Lawrance, Rhett Akins, Keith Anderson, and Trent Willmon among others.
