KENNY FEIDLERKenny Feidler’s sound is dark and gritty, it’s western and rock n roll all mixed together with thoughtful, honest songwriting. Feidler got his start as a rodeo cowboy, writing songs about the life and selling his music from the trunk of an old Cadillac. Now he racks up the miles with his band, traveling from his home on the plains of Western South Dakota, to play shows across America’s Heartland.
“I grew up in Baltimore, MD and I always felt sort of homesick for somewhere out west,” Feidler says. “I wanted to be a cowboy since I was little and rodeo was my way into that world. With some Chris Ledoux songs as a road map, I started riding bareback horses and rodeoed for about 15 years. It was everything to me for a long time and because I didn’t grow up in that lifestyle, I feel like I really soaked it all in, appreciated those moments and wrote about them in my songs.”
With new music due to release this year and over 160 million streams under his belt, it’s hard not to view this as a breakout moment for Feidler. However, Feidler is just thankful to have people care about his songs and the opportunity to make a living making music. “I’m really thankful to do this” Feidler says, “To go make a living for my family, playing music with my friends, it's just a very fortunate hand I've been dealt."
