KEVIN WELCH started his music career traveling honky-tonk circuits for 5 years with a truck named Phyllis in a band called New Rodeo and then Blue Rose Café. He started thinking there might be another way to live, so in ‘78 he moved to Nashville and started writing for Tree International. He wrote for 10 years, got some cuts, and started making a living. Then Steve Earle, Don Schlitz, Mark Germino and some other madmen suggested Kevin get a record deal. Paul Worley went to Warner Bros. and got Kevin signed.
Kevin made 2 records, Kevin Welch (90) and Western Beat (92). Warner let Kevin do whatever he wanted. Then they let him out of the deal to be nice, and because they had spent a fortune on him they were never ever gonna earn back. So Kevin and some buddies created Dead Reckoning Records around ‘94 or ‘95. They released 21 records over the next 7 years, toured individually and as a collective called A Night Of Reckoning through the U.S., U.K., Ireland, Europe, Canada. They were really good together, but then they all got tired and went home - except for Kevin.
So – through many more roads and three more records and he is still going.
