Big Kenny, born William Kenneth Alphin in 1963, is best known as half of Big & Rich alongside John Rich, but his solo record Live a Little has a story all its own. He cut it for Hollywood Records in 1999, and it sat on the shelf until 2005, when it finally came out carrying "Candy Colored Glasses". Before Big & Rich he also fronted a band called luvjOi.
The duo made six studio albums, and Big Kenny wrote or co-wrote several of their songs with Rich, along with singles for Gretchen Wilson, Jason Aldean, McBride & the Ride and Tim McGraw. He's a country singer with a wide-open, big-tent streak, and his solo titles tell you as much. His first solo single, "Long After I'm Gone", went to country radio on August 3, 2009, from The Quiet Times of a Rock and Roll Farm Boy, and in 2010 his third solo album, Big Kenny's Love Everybody Traveling Musical Medicine Show Mix Tape, Vol. 1, came out without producing any singles.
