Twilight Town by Kevin Stonerock
Songwriter and master storyteller Kevin Stonerock is a product of the Midwest, born and raised in a small town 40 miles east of Indianapolis. He was Americana before the word became a staple in the music lexicon—an amalgamation of traditional country and roots rock, with the sensibilities and lyricism of a folk artist. Stonerock's seventh solo album, Twilight Town, contains eleven Stonerock-penned tracks and features veteran pedal steel virtuoso Pee Wee Charles (Gordon Lightfoot, Ian Tyson and others) and five time Canadian Country Music Association award winning fiddler Shane Guse (Richard Marx, Lisa Brokop, Michelle Wright) and well known Cincinnati piano man Ricky Nye.

Somebody once said that Indiana-born Kevin Stonerock's music "is like Guy Clark, John Hiatt and Gordon Lightfoot on a fishing trip." He's not easy to pigeon-hole, "Americana" before the term became overused, a master storyteller; an introverted extrovert more comfortable in front of a crowd than in one; a painter who's canvas is an amalgamation of traditional country, folk and roots rock.
