Description
When grunge was mainstream, a blonde teenager from Louisiana upended the music industry by charting top 10 singles on the rock charts with his blues rock debut album Ledbetter Heights.
Kenny Wayne Shepherd released Ledbetter Heights 30 years ago and he has been redefining the genre ever since.
“This is the album that put me on the map," Shepherd says. "My goal has always been to make music that is unfiltered and straight from the heart and Ledbetter Heights is an album I’m very proud of."
Thirty years later Shepherd is releasing a re-recorded version of that debut album, Ledbetter Heights: The 30th Anniversary Sessions.
With the maturity of a seasoned musician and producer, as well as vocals featuring his longtime singer Noah Hunt, the 30th Anniversary Sessions are sure to please both old and new fans.
"Revisiting this album put me back in touch with the wonder and excitement of those days. I didn’t know what lay ahead at the time,” he reflects, “But I’m very grateful for what came from it.
