Release Notes:
--------
Mention the name Robert Earl Keen, and several descriptive terms spring to mind
û Texas singer-songwriter, career artist, brilliant storyteller, sardonic
humorist, poet of the strange and familiar. And now with the release of his
latest album, Happy Prisoner, there is what may seem a surprising addition to
that list û bluegrass singer.

ôI've had a lifelong love of bluegrass,ö says Keen. ôI've always had an affinity
for music that I felt like you'd listen to in your living room. Music that felt
real. My mom liked the old hillbilly music, and as a kid, I used to fall asleep
listening to an 8-track tape of Jimmie Rodgers' greatest hits. When I was in 9th
grade, one of my first dates was taking a girl to a bluegrass festival. That
sounds crazy for someone in Texas. But I was fascinated with that music, even
though it wasn't part of the gulf coast at all. When I started playing, my first
guitar hero was Norman Blake. In college, I had a bluegrass band called the
Front Porch Boys, went to fiddle contests, learned a jillion fiddle and
old-timey songs. My whole education in music started with bluegrass.

ôAnd that's partly where the album title comes from,ö he continues. ôI've been
listening to it forever, I love it, and so I feel like I'm something of a happy
prisoner of bluegrass."
