Kennedy

Kennedy - Lovechild

Kennedy

Kennedy are a southern rock band based out of Nashville, Tennessee. Since Nashville is the home of all-things-Country/Western, you would expect to hear that influence in their music - but no! They're pretty much sound very alternative southern-sounding rock.... at least based on the two songs that were submitted to me.

According to their biography, the band have been around since 2004, honing their song playing skills.

I believe their album or EP will be called Slanky.SEXY.Rock, which pretty much described the songs I've heard.

Both "Cocaine" and "Lovechild" are available to download on their myspace. Check out the bassline in "Cocaine". It's really good, you can hear it very clearly in the song's intro, however, between the two songs, I thought perhaps "Lovechild" might better represent the band with its southern-style vocals and bluesy guitar solo.

I have to add that their name might deter them from being more successful.  "Kennedy" is just too common of a moniker, and is also associated with (famous) people, such as that MTV VJ also called Kennedy.
