Synopsis

Product Description
Tommy Webb is from Langley, Kentucky located in Floyd County, near the well-known Highway Route 23 that so many award winning Country and Bluegrass music artists have originated. Tommy s voice has a genuine Big Country & Rootsy Bluegrass quality brand that is unmistakingly his own...Simply put, he sounds like Tommy Webb !

Last year, his unique and refreshing salt of the earth vocal style caught the attention of Rural Rhythm Records who singed Tommy Webb to their growing roster of Bluegrass & Acoustic Country artists. Heartland is Tommy Webb s third album release and debut album on Rural Rhythm Records. Produced by Ron Stewart, (who is also known for his numerous IBMA nominations and awards and band membership with J.D. Crowe & The New South and currently with Dan Tyminski), has once again found the right vehicel for Tommy s songwriting, song selection and vocals to shine and take his muisc to the next level.

Tommy Webb is one of those rare Down to Earth, No Sugar Coating talents that comes along once in a grand while that grabs you and makes you listen...This is the third CD of Tommy's that I have been a part of, and from that first time I hit the record button and heard him sing, I knew that I, along with the rest of the bluegrass and acoustic music world, would be hearing a lot more from this guy, and hopefully I would be involved! Ron Stewart, Producer / Musician

Tommy s last album also caught the attention of many Bluegrass DJ s especially the song If It Weren t For Bluegrass Music (I d Go Crazy ) which reached # 4 on the Bluegrass Unlimited Song Chart. This song along with another standout fan favorite A Hard Row To Hoe , from Tommy s first album, has recently been sent to radio by Rural Rhythm. Both these songs have been re-mixed and re-mastered and appear as bonus tracks, joining the other 12 new songs on Heartland .

Teardrop Inn , the first single from Heartland , is a love story tragicly gone wrong, filled with all the familiar cheating on the other side of town elements with lyrics that speak to the hurtful emotion and firey passion of a woman scorned...The harmonies are trurly haunting and captures the direct and raw emotion of the woman s last words to her gentleman lover who s done her wrong.

Tommy Webb has been turning heads for several years now and has caught the attention of many others:
Tommy Webb is the Real Deal...Being from Eastern Kentucky, he lives and breaths Bluegrass Music... - Charlie Hall, WCYO 100.7fm
I love Tommy s music !...When you hear Tommy sing you know it s him right from the start. His voice was made for Bluegrass Music and when he sings a song he sure makes it his own.

Tommy's song A Hard Row to Hoe reaches the heart and soul of the everyday working man/woman and their plight enduring through these hard times, just trying to survive.
