Sunday at 5:15pm on the BMI stage. Country. He's originally from Oklahoma but now lives in Frisco, Texas. As this article states:
Corey Kent is 28 years old, married and a father to three kids, age five, two and one...Kent's new Blacktop album is a study in contrast. A decade in Nashville with little to show for it made him patient, but it also taught him a few hard lessons. Most of these came through friends who made poor decisions and paid for it. The road life is filled with temptation, and he knows it.
This article says he joined a Western Swing band at 11 years-old and toured around the country. It eventually disbanded and he moved to Nashville to make it big. When that failed he moved to Texas and started making music he wanted to play while working at a pavement company. His hit song below went viral and Nashville came calling.
This is his big hit that got him signed to RCA Records Nashville. I can see why. Good song. Great lyrics:
She ain't living for a diamond ringJust living like the rock'n'roll song she sings out loudWe're burnin' it downBlazin' up a trail of smokeWherever we are, wherever we goYeah, that's where she calls home
