Kevin Denney
Kevin Denney (born January 27, 1978 in Monticello, Kentucky) is an American country music artist. Signed to Lyric Street Records in 2001, he made his debut on the country music scene with the release of his self-titled album (2001's Kevin Denney), which produced three chart singles, including "That's Just Jessie", a Top 20 hit on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) charts. He was dropped from Lyric Street's roster in 2003, although he co-wrote a track on Tracy Byrd's 2006 Different Things album.
Biography
Denney's interest in music began at an early age. His mother and father, both of whom sang in a gospel music quartet, bought Denney his first guitar when he was three years old. He also became a frequent listener of the Grand Ole Opry radio shows, and played in his cousin's bluegrass music band.
At age 17, however, he briefly stopped focusing on his musical interests in order to re-assess his future. On his eighteenth birthday, his girlfriend took him to a George Strait concert. Seeing Strait in concert helped Denney discover that music was his passion, and he later joined a local band that was looking for a lead singer. Denney later went solo, and was signed to Lyric Street Records in 2001. His eponymous debut album, released in 2002, produced three charting singles on the Hot Country Songs charts: "That's Just Jessie" at number 16, "Cadillac Tears" at number 30 and "It'll Go Away" at number 43. He also contributed a rendition of "White Christmas" to the label's multi-artist compilation No Wrapping Required.
Kevin Denney (album)
Kevin Denney is the self-titled debut album of American country music artist Kevin Denney, released in 2002 on Lyric Street Records. It features the singles "That's Just Jessie", "Cadillac Tears" and "It'll Go Away", all of which charted on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) charts between 2002 and 2003. "That's Just Jessie" was the highest-peaking of these three, reaching number 16 on the country charts and number 76 on the Billboard Hot 100. Following this song were "Cadillac Tears" and "It'll Go Away", which respectively reached numbers 30 and 43 on the country charts. Also included on this album is the song "Takin' Off the Edge", which was previously recorded by John Michael Montgomery on his 1992 debut album Life's a Dance.
After the third single from this album was released, Denney issued a fourth single entitled "A Year at a Time", which peaked at #46. This song was not included on an album, however, and Denney was dropped from Lyric Street's roster shortly afterward.
