Real Country Music never died, it just covered its ears and walked away. It couldn’t handle what it had become. Hoping that it would change its ways and come back around, for years Country Music hid from the glitz and pretty vocals until it couldn’t take anymore. Then something revolutionary happened, it found its voice again, this time in a traditional troubadour of soulful country music named Ken Mellons.



If you aren’t familiar with Ken Mellon’s story then you might recognize his name, and if you don’t recognize his name you might recognize his voice and if you don’t recognize his voice then you’re probably listening to your local corporate owned radio station too much. Most known for his song “Jukebox Junkie,” Ken had a string of hits in the 90’s on Sony Records including, “I Can Bring Her Back, “Rubba Dubbin,’” “ Looking In The Same Direction,” and “Working For The Weekend.” Then it seems he disappeared off radio’s radar, an all too familiar story. Ken’s sexy baritone voice however did not disappear. For years Ken put aside touring and concentrated on raising his son Kade, all the while, writing hits for George Strait, Dierks Bentley, Mark Chesnutt and others. Just like country music though, he waited for the tides to turn back around and for his voice to be heard once again. The wait is over; it’s time to let country listeners decide what country is.



This site is just a small outlet for a voice that has been pushed aside, for a music that has been forgotten. So please, listen and spread the word, artist like Ken are still out there and we know fans of great singers and good songs, you are out there too.div class="coolchaser" id="45237538">
