Kenny Feidler’s music is dark and gritty, it’s western and rock n roll conjured up 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.

cowboy songs from Chris LeDoux, Tom Russell, and Ian Tyson shaped his songwriting and
subjects. Feidler went to college in Oklahoma, in the prime of Red Dirt so the songs of Cross
Canadian Ragweed, Jason Boland, Reckless Kelly, and Mike McClure were influential. Later he
found Lucero and the Drive By Truckers,
