Montgomery Gentry is not the name of one person, but two (that is to say that they are a duo). Their New Country sound started off with the duo tipping their hat to Honky-Tonk inspired New Traditionalists, but they have also tried their hand at more up-tempo Southern Rock styles. Their songs, harmonies, and instrumentation all come together to form a chemistry that is not only believable, but also enjoyable.

About Montgomery Gentry
This raucous honky-tonk duo comprises Eddie Montgomery (b. Gerald Edward Montgomery, 30 September 1963, Lancaster, Kentucky, USA; vocals/guitar) and Troy Gentry (b. 5 April 1967, Lexington, Kentucky, USA; vocals/guitar). Eddie is the brother of country star, John Michael Montgomery. Their parents toured as Harold Montgomery And The Kentucky River Express and when Eddie was 13, he replaced his mother as the act's drummer. Gentry wanted to be a singer ever since first hearing Randy Travis, but he went to university, majoring in marketing and business management.
In the early 90s Montgomery and Gentry worked together with John Michael as Young Country, then Gentry, as a solo performer, won the Jim Beam National Talent Contest in 1994. He opened for several country stars before forming Deuce with Eddie Montgomery. The duo, subsequently renamed Montgomery Gentry, won plaudits for their 1999 debut Tattoos & Scars, which includes the great honky-tonk tracks "Trouble Is", "Daddy Won't Sell The Farm" and "All Night Long", featuring vocals by the song's co-writer, Charlie Daniels.
The following May, Montgomery Gentry was named the CMA Vocal Duo Of The Year.Montgomery Gentry returned to the charts in style in 2001 with the number 2 hit "She Couldn't Change Me", taken from the bestselling album Carrying On. The following year's My Town was also a success, with the title track, "Speed" and "Hell Yeah' all reaching the country Top 5. Their hard edged country rock is a formula that continues to work time and time again. 2004"s You Do Your Thing was no exception and featured the excellent single "If You Ever Stop Loving Me".
