About Me

Highlights so far include:- Writing with some amazing hit writers including Craig Bickhardt, Craig Wiseman, Jason Blume, Philip Douglas, Joie Scott, Burton Collins and Cal Sweat.- Song placed on country artist Keith Bryant's debut album (Lofton Creek Records).- Song in the USA Network Film "The Last Ride" starring Dennis Hopper.- Song placed on Canadian based artist Kevin Chase's album and released as the first radio single.- Two songs placed in CMT's show "Home Blitz".- Released two relaxing instrumental CDs, visit: www.kentforward.com- Had several instrumental compositions included in an award winning PBS documentary, Every 15 Minutes.- Had 3 songs cut on a NASCAR promo CD featuring the artist Blue Miller ( formerly of The Gibson/Miller Band and Bob Seger's Silver Bullet Band) which distributed over 1,000,000 copies.... and the journey continues!
