Big And Rich mp3

Big & Rich are an American country music duo comprising Big Kenny (Kenny Alphin) and John Rich (formerly of Lonestar). They first performed together in 1998.

Martina McBride recorded Alphin and Rich's song "She's a Butterfly" in 2003, and Big & Rich landed a record deal a few months later. Their first album Horse of a Different Color (2004) reached number one in both the Billboard national chart as well as the Billboard country music chart. The most successful song from the album was the second single, the smash hit "Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy." This song reached #11 on country radio, and received wider exposure when ESPN featured the song in commercials for its coverage of the 2004 World Series of Poker. Big & Rich also showcased this song in a country-rap music blowout to conclude a CMT awards show.

In 2004, Big & Rich shared a nationwide sell-out stadium tour with Martina McBride and Tim McGraw. Later that year, the duo embarked on the American Revolution Tour which they coheadlined with Gretchen Wilson and other members of their renegade group known as the MuzikMafia. A live version of the band covering Madonna's "Like a Virgin" has also made its way onto the web.

Their sophomore album, Comin' To Your City, was released on November 15, 2005. Big Kenny's solo CD from 1999, Live a Little, & John Rich's solo CD from 1999 Underneath The Same Moon were also released in 2005. Big Kenny and his wife, Christiev, welcomed a son on November 2, 2005. They named him Lincoln William Holiday and John Rich has been named his godfather. Big and Rich also co-headlined in the "Deuces Wild" tour with Brooks & Dunn and the Warren Brothers.

In 2006, Big & Rich released a single "The 8th of November" inspired by the story of Niles Harris. A subsequent documentary titled "The 8th of November: a true American story of honor" was released also. The documentary tells the story of Niles Harris and shows the making of the music video for the single.
