The Kentucky HeadHunters Return From The Rock N' Roll Jungle With 12th Studio
Album
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (September 12, 2016) -- With nearly 50 years of success
spanning across multiple genres, The Kentucky HeadHunters are gearing up for
the November 4 release of On Safari. The southern rock soon-to-be classic tips
the hat to family and the southern way of life.
The new album, a Plowboy Records/Practice House Records joint venture, comes
after several life changing events for The Kentucky HeadHunters. Band members
Richard and Fred Young lost their father just three days before heading into
the studio to record On Safari, causing the HeadHunters to let their guard down
and pour even more emotion into the record, which they have dedicated to the
memory of their father.
Coming off the heels of their first-ever European tour, The Kentucky
HeadHunters are reinventing themselves yet again for their 12th studio album,
drawing inspiration from their recent travels across the pond. The band credits
Richard Young's son, John Fred, and his bandmates of Black Stone Cherry for
pushing them out of their comfort zone to make the trek overseas, where many of
the HeadHunters' rock influences call home.
"What makes you weak, makes you stronger," says rhythm guitar player and
vocalist Richard Young of the band's experiences together in 2016.
That quote seems to be the theme for On Safari, and southern rock fans can be
certain of a strong showing by the GRAMMY award-winning group. Touted by
Billboard as a "great American rock 'n' roll band", The Kentucky HeadHunters
continue to bring their rocking, energetic live show across the U.S. and
Canada, showcasing the one of a kind sound that has given them the longevity in
this industry that many acts only dream of.
