With his red-dirt swagger and blue-collar grit, new-school country rocker Corey Kent is blazing his own trail in the country music scene. A Sony Music Nashville artist, Kent has spent over 15 years honing his craft and building a loyal fan base—all before hitting 30. Now, with a powerful live show and a growing national buzz, he’s poised to become one of country music’s next breakout stars.
Kent’s stream of hits includes “Wild as Her,” “Something’s Gonna K*ll Me,” “This Heart,” and “Gold.” Drawing inspiration from The Eagles, Keith Richards, Turnpike Troubadours and more, Kent strives to build an undeniable stage presence, and his black bandana-wearing Rock ‘N’ Roll spirit comes to life on the stage. That Black Bandana is more than an accessory – it’s the name of his sophomore major-label album.
“It started from riding motorcycles and wanting something over your face so you didn’t swallow a bug,” the singer-songwriter says. “But then it turned into a staple I wear on stage, and then a symbol of the path through my career, and life. Through all the ups and downs, the one constant thing was this relentless hope – this relentless pursuit of believing that if I don’t give up, I can get where I’m going.”
This December, the two concerts in the Island Showroom before excited Midwest fans will be what he’s shooting for.
“I’m excited about the shows I haven’t played yet,” said Kent. “I’m excited about unlocking new levels of my craft and writing more songs that people connect with deeply.”
