ABOUT MONTGOMERY GENTRY: With over 20 plus charted singles, the Kentucky-born duo celebrated a major career milestone last year as Eddie Montgomery and Troy Gentry were inducted into the Kentucky Music Hall of Fame. On June 9, 2015 the pair released Folks Like Us, their eighth studio album and first with label partner Blaster Records. 

Montgomery Gentry has earned countless CMA, ACM, and GRAMMY awards and nominations with undeniable blue collar anthems like “Hell Yeah,” “My Town,” and “Hillbilly Shoes.” They’ve notched five #1 singles (“If You Ever Stop Loving Me,” “Something To Be Proud Of,” “Lucky Man,” “Back When I Knew It All” and “Roll With Me”) and will soon celebrate their seventh anniversary as Grand Ole Opry members.
