Five years ago, Hal Ketchum packed up his guitars and left Nashville, turning his back on a successful, 20+ year career in country music. He first hit the country market alongside fellow troubadours like Lyle Lovett and Steve Earle, and went on to sell more than 5 million albums and rack up a half-dozen Top 10 hits. His latest release brings to mind the thrill of his earliest albums, and we can’t wait for him to grace the stage of the intimate Stateside Theatre.
