The Kentucky Headhunters To Premiere Tracks From New Album, ‘On Safari,’ On SiriusXM Outlaw Country Ch. 60

The Kentucky Headhunters are going "On Safari" with former WWE Superstar Hillbilly Jim, as they premiere tracks from their new album this weekend on SiriusXM Outlaw Country Channel 60's "Hillbilly Jim's Haunted Hayride." The special will air Saturday, Oct. 29 at 10 a.m. ET, Sunday, Oct. 30 at 2 p.m. ET and Monday, Oct. 31 at 8 p.m. ET. The 12th studio album by the GRAMMY award winning group is available for pre-order on iTunes and Amazon now.

Long considered "Southern Rock Royalty," The Kentucky Headhunters continue to live up to the hype with On Safari, which serves as a nod to family and the Southern way of life. A perfect fit for their long-time friend and fellow Kentuckian, Hillbilly Jim, who serves up 200-proof down-home country and southern-fried rock & roll every weekend on SiriusXM Outlaw Country.

"It's always an unbelievable treat to have The Kentucky Headhunters on my show, as our friendship goes back to when we were all young men together," said Jim "Hillbilly Jim" Morris. "In my opinion not only are they one of the best bands in this country, but in any country, anywhere."

About The Kentucky Headhunters:
Known as "Southern Rock Royalty" and the "great American rock 'n' roll band," The Kentucky Headhunters have maintained a longevity most acts can only dream about. With a GRAMMY® Award, two Top 10 charting albums, four consecutive Top 40 hits and countless other honors, The "Heads" are credited for creating a unique blend of honky-tonk, blues, and southern rock that appeals to the toughest music critics and listeners of all kinds. Getting their start in 1968, brothers Fred and Richard Young and cousins Greg Martin and Anthony Kenney, from Edmonton, Kentucky, formed Itchy Brother, which later morphed into The Kentucky Headhunters after Kenney departed and Doug Phelps joined the band. Their first album, Pickin' On Nashville, (1989), surprised the world when it became a major success, selling over two million copies. Their 2015 release Meet Me in Bluesland, included the last vocals ever recorded of the late, great pianist Johnnie Johnson - Rock N Roll Hall of Famer and legendary keyboardist for Chuck Berry. The album reached the No. 1 spot on the Billboard Blues Album chart the week of its debut. It also garnered top placement on the Billboard Americana Chart. The band's forthcoming Fall 2016 release On Safari is a southern rock album that tips the hat to family and the southern way of life. The Kentucky Headhunters still tour extensively throughout the United States and Canada, and recently completed their first-ever European tour.
