Kern Richards speaks to traditional Folk, Country, and Blues audiences as well as to the rocker in us all.
His songs of heartbreak, loneliness and dissolution are written and sung by a master storyteller with a unique sense of humor, irony and warmth.

Ross (Rank & File, Desert Rose Band), and many more.
