Big Kenny Alphin

As one half of the genre-bending super duo Big & Rich, “Big Kenny” Alphin sold in excess of five million albums, opened sold-out stadium tours for Kenny Chesney, hit the amphitheaters with Tim McGraw, graced the covers of Entertainment Weekly, Billboard, Country Weekly and was featured in such venerable magazines as Rolling Stone, People and many others. Big & Rich has been a mainstay on national TV having performed on every late night talk show, morning show and all things in between.

Also an accomplished songwriter, Big Kenny was named the BMI Songwriter of the Year in 2005, and has written several top 10 hits for artists such as Tim McGraw (”Last Dollar Fly Away”), Gretchen Wilson (”Here For The Party”) and Jason Aldean (”Hicktown” and “Amarillo Sky”). Big Kenny’s philanthropic efforts extend to the Southern region of Sudan, where he helped build the Kunyuk School for Girls in Akon in 2008, and to the American Appalachians, where he works to end mountaintop removal coal mining. His Love Everybody is a fledgling foundation that is generating good will throughout the community.
