Legendary Outlaw

Many stories have been written about the exploits of Billy the Kid, the charismatic outlaw of the Old West. Some have been pure fiction, designed to entertain and excite. Purple prose writers began chronicling the exploits of Billy as early as the late 1870s. Others have been biographical, researched by historians or recorded by those who knew him, including his murderer, Sheriff Pat Garrett.

Since the release of his 2015 debut, Angeleno, Outlaw remains one of LA's only modern country singers to earn international acclaim. With his follow-up, Tenderheart, he shows an impressive refinement of his artistic identity. Sonically, the album further elaborates Outlaw's SoCal Country sound: a sun-bleached, Baja-influenced twang that deftly points to country's neo-traditionalists and LA's legendary singer-songwriters.
