2009
We first came across Colt Ford about a year ago when his video for “No Trash In My Trailer” was making the rounds. It was immediately obvious that although he isn’t your typical country act, his music is very entertaining and fun!
With songs like “Waffle House,” “Cold Beer,” and “I Can’t Sing,” Colt’s Ride Through The Country album is full of songs that everyday people can relate to. Not only do his lyrics draw from southern living, he also blends in a lot of comic relief to remind listeners that it’s important to find the fun in any situation!
Colt’s music is definitely very different from the typical country music that you hear, but after only a couple of minutes of listening to his album, I realized that Colt’s point in music goes a little bit deeper than just comedy. It’s very apparent that even when it’s through a funny line, Colt really wants to relate to the common man and give them the comfort of relatability through his music. Country stars Jamey Johnson and John Michael Montgomery also make an appearance on the album to raise the bar even higher!
You can keep tabs on Colt Ford all over the internet – check out his Facebook, MySpace, and get even closer to him through his Twitter page!
We want to help spread the Colt Ford love around so we’re having a fun contest! Leave your name and e-mail address in the comments section of this post and you’ll be automatically entered in a contest for some free merchandise. The winner will receive a free Colt Ford hat and t-shirt, and three runners-up will receive a t-shirt! We’ll run the contest until Thursday – good luck!

I have been sitting with my Dad for several months. He fell and broke his hip. My neighbor started playing music late Sat. night and I was like great….I went outside and back in and told Daddy sit tight I will be out on the porch. I had never heard you before nor did I know your name until the next day. I walked over to the neighbors and asked who was playing the music…they did not want to say….i said who ever the first singer was i have to know his name because he is kick butt and i want the album. you are awesome!

I love Colt Fords music! His music represents where I am from and what I believe in. His music also reminds me of how my husband’s cousin Kevin lived. Kevin was a great guy and the songs about Waffle House & dirt roads just fit! Kevin passed away in April at the age of 35… but if he were still here today I know this would be the ONLY cd in his truck! My favorite song (so far) is the Roll With Me remix!

Colt Ford is an amazing guy. He is a really good down home GA Boy. We luv and support him 110%. His CD has changed our lives and has helped to keep us grounded during the uncertain economy. He writes about real life and people can really relate to him and his music. This CD has us and our friends HOOKED FOR LIFE..Thats why we support him and his band 110%. Country music has needed someone like Colt Ford for a long time. The CD has bridged so many gaps in different genre’s of music. Colt Ford is the real deal..what ya see is what ya get kinda guy. We wish him continued success in all that he does.
