Drives

Tuesday, April 9th, 2013

Everyone has a favorite road to drive. I have a several of them, truth be told. There’s the stretch of 67 heading out of Fort Stockton, Texas, towards Alpine, and then onward to Marfa as 67 meets up with reliable old 90. The last zigzagging mile of the Million Dollar Highway that drops out of the [...]

The Red River Songwriters’ Festival, 2nd Edition!

Monday, October 22nd, 2012

Last year a handful of like-minded artists set out from Texas in the hopes of starting, and finding, something new. The idea: to start a small, intimate, fun little music festival where songwriters and fans alike can mix and mingle, hang and hear, ski and sing among the high pines and snowflakes that make wintertime [...]

Documenting An Adventure- Stars in California

Wednesday, August 22nd, 2012

A few months ago, my talented friend Andrew Barrera came to me with an idea. “It’ll be like a road trip,” he said, “but we’ll actually get something out of it other than hangovers and speeding tickets.” His idea was this: Route our way from Las Vegas to New Braunfels with a small film crew to [...]

Taking This “Second Favorite” Thing At Face Value

Thursday, July 19th, 2012

A while back I had some shirts printed up with a catchy little slogan on the front: Kennedy, My Second Favorite Artist.  They make sense, you know? Because honestly, who can really say they’re someones favorite at anything with complete and utter certainty? Not me– no way. I’d never be that brash. Second favorite? Okay. [...]

Telluride!

Wednesday, May 9th, 2012

I’m happy to announce that I’ve been accepted into the Telluride Bluegrass Festival’s prestigious Troubadour Competition! It’s a wonderful event that pits some of the best songwriters in the world against one another in a six-round, steel-cage submission match. Wait, what? Oh, check that. Turns out it’s a songwriting competition. I guess I can pull [...]

Music as a Family

Tuesday, February 7th, 2012

When I first moved to Texas in 2004, I arrived with the hope that I would be welcomed into a tightly knitted community of like-minded artists, the idea of which I had admired for quite some time from afar. It was the inspiration for, and the premise behind, my self-imposed uprooting. Mutual support would abound, [...]
