Born in Virginia and raised in Texas, Guthrie has toured, recorded, and collaborated with some of the finest musicians and songwriters in the world, from Marc Benno and Buddy Miles to Smokin’ Joe Kubek, Doyle Bramhall, Sr., and Ray Wylie Hubbard.
His album Matchbox (produced by Hubbard) was a top-ten record on the U.S. Americana charts and reached number two on the European Americana charts.
He continues to tour the world and we're very privileged that he's coming to give such an intimate performance here in Bath. There's sure to be musicians queuing round the block to play with him, and anyone who saw him at the Ram last year will tell you this is not a gig to be missed!
"Guthrie Kennard is one bad ass song writer and this is no mediocre compliment. This man can write a song that is as true as an angel on the witness stand" - Roots Music Report
"With a voice that recalls Bob Dylan and Keith Richards, Kennard spins his tales of rural disaffection against a backdrop of rough-hewed melodies and backwoods percussion, classic Texas music, a soundtrack to the Hill Country, and the slow country songs sound like a drive on patchy, paved roads that lead to all sorts of interesting places" – Darryl Smyers, Dallas Observer
