An earthy roots Folk & Canadiana with traces of Psychobilly-esque undertones. Simon & Garfunkel meet Stan Ridgeway.

From the three rivers of Pictou harbour in the Canadian east of Nova Scotia emerges KENT and his the debut release "Hot Chicken Sandwich".

KENT's lyrics weave an introspective look at life and community in rural Canada. From the self-examination of lost possibilities (Everyone who knows me, knows I could do better...but me) in "Dry Little Cracker" to the mournful self portrait of "Tonto Lamento" that speaks of anguish "his heart it is a wind swept plain" KENT offers up a revealing personal portrait his own story and life.

Pictou was a receiving point for many Scottish immigrants moving to a new home in northern Nova Scotia and Cape Breton Island following the Highland Clearances of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Consequently, the town's slogan is "The Birthplace of New Scotland"; the first wave of immigrants is acknowledged to have arrived on September 15, 1773, on the Hector.
