Hearing that song at age 5, Rodney Hayden of Pleasanton, Texas probably didn’t think that he’d be trying on those shoes one day. Hayden’s first album, The Real Thing, came out in 2001 and it only took one listen to realize that the world had been introduced to the perfect stone-country singer in the tradition of Haggard and Jones. A collection of seven original songs and four dead-solid covers, The Real Thing was a strong debut that left fans of COUNTRY MUSIC hungry for more. It is here. Hayden’s second album, Living the Good Life, was released in 2003 on the Audium/Koch label. Keeping the promises made on his first album, he offers up another stunning collection of songs. Eight new originals, co-written with Bill Whitbeck, run the emotional gamut from the honky-tonk fun of the first single, “Trying to Get a Little Love,” to the heartbreak of “The First Day.” “Goodbye to My Hometown” is the timeless story of a young man leaving home to find his place in the world. The achingly beautiful “Mr. Mockingbird” is an instant classic. Once again... Read More About Rodney Hayden Biography... Send Rodney Hayden ringtones to your cell |
