REVIEW: Appalachian Gold Struck Again. Ian Noe Releases ‘Between The Country’ On May 31st
The world is seeing a musical shift, a revolution, a renaissance, a renewal and a revival and Kentucky artists are leading the charge.

He landed a publishing deal and took off chasing his dream and that’s where I want to let Dillon’s lyrics speak for themselves.
