“Kentucky Blue is somewhat of a light hearted fiction of a man who hit rock bottom over lost love and perpetual heartbreak. The story paints the scene of a man leaning on sad songs and memories of the past with no way to escape. Though hoping all along he might find a way out of his predicament it's almost as if he has found comfort in his own hopeless misery. This semi retro composition is reminiscent of classic Hank with the cry of the lyrics almost moaning out the state his obviously broken heart is in.”
– Billy Droze

“This song has been stuck in my head from the moment I heard it. It’s so good, even my sub consciousnesskeeps hitting replay.” - Terry Herd, Bluegrass Radio Network / Bluegrass Today

Billy Droze is very proud of his band Kentucky Blue and is excited to introduce them to the music world in his own words. “Kentucky Blue is a 4 piece Band Comprised of 27 year old David Freeman on Mandolin, David has an extremely advanced progressive style a la Chris Thile, but all his own, that will leave you wanting more and hanging on every note! On Banjo we have the 17 year old virtuoso Mathew Davis. Wow what can I say about Mathew, one of those you'll have to see to believe musicians. He plays eight instruments but excels greatly on the 5 string Banjo "One of the most intricate melodic players I have ever had the pleasure of working with" B.R.D. Lastly the glue that keeps the whole thing grooving right along, Mr. Mitchell Brown (Band Leader) a very seasoned upright bass player who has been band leader with acts such as "Joey & Rory ", "Charlie Louvin” and also played with Rhonda Vincent for a spell, to name a few. Brown has over 200 Grand Ole Opry performances under his belt to date”.
