Singer-songwriter Kenny Roby joined Aaron on Live & Local this week, ahead of a show at the Pour House in Raleigh to celebrate the release of his new (self-titled) album.
He’s now based in Woodstock, New York, but Kenny Roby has been a fixture of the Triangle music scene for over two decades: he fronted 6 String Drag in the 1990s before going solo in the early 2000s. Though he’s mostly focused on his solo work these days, he still occasionally performs with the band – and in 2021 he contributed to “Highway Butterfly,” a tribute to the late Neal Casal. Dozens of artists came together for that project, which raised funds to buy instruments for kids and support mental health services for professional musicians.

Kenny Roby stopped by 97.9 The Hill to chat about the new album, the Neal Casal Music Foundation, his touring strategies, and more. Listen below:
