The Kentucky Headhunters To Play Their First European Tour Dates
. Although the Headhunters perform nearly 100 dates per year across the U.S. and Canada, their conventional way of getting to and from has always been their tour bus. Hundreds of thousands of miles have passed underneath those wheels since the late 80s. Richard Young preferred them planted firmly on the ground. "I'm terrified to fly," he said. "But I'm not going to pass up the opportunity to go to Europe and perform with some of the greatest rock bands in history." Young credits his friend Martin at the Fresh Start Agency in Europe and his son John Fred for landing these great opportunities for the Headhunters. The band will perform their own set on the festivals' main stages, but also hopes to jam with 'kin-folk' Kentucky rockers Black Stone Cherry at Ramblin' Man Fair. Black Stone Cherry is racking up rave reviews on their second headlining arena tour in the UK. The drummer of the band, John Fred Young, is Richard's son and also the nephew of The Kentucky Headhunter's drummer, Fred Young. "It's really gonna be cool for The Heads and BSC to play on the same stage in the UK. Both bands are two generations of family based out of the same town, Edmonton, Kentucky," said Richard Young.
