“The “Rolling Stone” idea came to me while I was on an Amtrak train leaving a weekend of recording in a Philadelphia hotel room to come back to Baltimore and record in another. The whole idea of hopping the train solo to different cities to handle business made me feel like a vagabond in a way…I really felt like a rolling stone. I murmured a makeshift hook in my phone and went directly to the piano when I pulled in. From there I just built on the theme lyrically and melodically. The storyline came naturally, I actually started seeing the visuals as I was creating the sound and the song just came to life. After the structure was set up, I felt the need for a different vocal texture than what I had laid down on the hook. It was only right to call my friend and former band mate, Garrett Anderson who has an incredible vocal tone…I also talked him into bringing his Les Paul in to rip some guitar. He absolutely nailed it. The track is on fire…it couldn’t have turned out any better.” – Kenton Dunson

About Kenton Dunson:
Kenton Dunson became proactive on his music career in early 2010 when he resigned from his position at an investment firm to embark on the journey of an artist. People continue to find it difficult to put him in a box because of his talents which include self-production, vocals, lyricism and intense attack on in multiple instruments. He first released abstract musical energy with a debut, The Kenton Dunson Progressions, but not long after released the highly heralded self-produced and much more intense album, Creative Destruction. The Maryland native has played in bands of multiple-genres over the years but took the chance to go solo and has since found a very receptive global base of listeners through online support and live performances. Kenton is currently working on his third project, but in the meantime has taken interest in remixing popular songs that lend themselves to his creative style.
