Matt Kennon Teams With Ride Records for Latest Single

April 12, 2012/by Eric T. Parker

Matt Kennon

RoaDDawg Records artist Matt Kennon has partnered with Ride Records for a national radio promotion campaign for Kennon’s latest single “You Had To Pick On Me.”

The single, which was co-written with Jami Grooms and Garrett Parris, focuses on the important topic of bullying and harassment. Kennon recently received an invitation from the D.A. of his home state of Alabama to perform a series concerts in May at local Mobile Schools.

For further support, Ride Records owner Steve Azar and Kennon are planning a Summer tour together.

“The story is from a real place and it’s a story that is tough to tell,” said Bill ‘BT’ Twyman, President of Ride Records. “Nevertheless, we all are aware that we can no longer hide the true-to-life fact that bullying is real and effects all mankind in a very real way. Matt delivers it with heart and soul.”

Ride Records works with independent artists including Dave Hardin and Walt Wilkins and is home to Azar.
