If not, I suggest you do. I’d been hearing about this “young classic country singer” guy from Little Rock for a couple of years when I finally caught him playing in a basement near the UA Campus. Somehow, instead of coming off like your average folk-singer-wannabe, Chris Denny was so sincere in his performance that I’m pretty sure my jaw was dropped the entire show.

His voice is definitely what grabs your attention first. My initial thought was of a young Roy Orbison but I’ve heard other comparisons including Jimmie Dale Gilmore (Localist) and even Slim Whitman (Pitchfork).

The Localist called him “the oldest twenty-two year old on the planet” and I think that sums it up pretty well. Everything from his music to his lyrics are straight outta the early 50s country music scene.

His debut album is out now and can be found on Amazon and iTunes. I would suggest at least giving it a listen via christopherdenny.com using the handy-dandy player in the top right. There’s also a video floating around that’s great. I found it on his MySpace page but I believe it’s somewhere on his website as well.

Check it out, ya’ll. If ya wanna.

And therefore, so do you!

Arkansas is way too awesome for a moron like Asa Hutchinson to be in charge. Thankfully, we don’t have to worry about that anymore now that Democrat Mike Beebe has officially won the race. Phew.

As promised, I’ll have a new video posted sometime this evening. Celebrate, ya’ll.

Oh, and for those of you who selected “Why Should I?” in reference to whether or not you’d be voting, I have two answers for you: Montana and Virginia.

Have you voted yet today? If not, here’s what you gotta do: Vote.

Me and a bunch of folks from work went and voted early yesterday and we got the choice between a paper ballot and an electronic voting machine. I was a little nervous about my vote getting counted properly so I chose paper. I’m not sure if you get the choice on actual voting day or not.

In case you haven’t made up your mind yet on who to vote for as our new Governor, I’ll just say this: If Mike Beebe wins, I’ll be so happy that I’ll probably make a lot more videos for the video section…hint.
