“What does a songwriter /performer do in a pandemic, of course create a new record! Authentic is the title, although it could have been called six masked men,” exclaimed Kent Blazy! “My aim was to have this record bring hope,joy, gratitude and fun to anyone listening.”
This project has Jon Pardi's bass player, Lee Francis, and drummer, Kevin Murphy locking in the groove, Steve Allen from the pop band, 2020, on electric guitar and Josh Martin on guitar, mandolin, vocals and good vibes as well as Kent Blazy on electric guitar and vocals. " I am blessed to have two songs that are on this album that have been recorded by other artist, but not yet released on their individual projects," stated Blazy. "Garth Brooks has recorded, "Me Without You" and Steve Wariner recorded, "Scotty Moore."
Blazy added, “It was an emotional and joyful experience to play with other musicians again and to hear them bring to life the songs I had been creating. I love the way it all came together with ease. I miss playing live and doing album release shows and look forward to the day that will be possible again. I hope the listeners will enjoy hearing these songs as much as I did creating it.”
