Brian Hendrix

Brian Hendrix still writes the old songs that Townes Van Zandt inspired in him. Catchy enough for the modern country audience, but meaningful and poignant as the lyrics that shaped an entire genre.

I don't know if there are any songs written about a girl named Kimberly. I just got inspired one night I couldn't sleep, and that line was playing in my head: "Oh, Kimberly, I can't believe..." and so I wrote a song.
Song about a guy who's been trying to forget this ex, but a rainy day reminds him of the day she left him and walked out.
Just a fun song about a guy who likes to drink, probably a little too much. No real story behind this. Just a drinkin' song I wrote.
This one just popped into my head while I was trying to get to sleep. It shares a similar title with other songs, but the lyrics here are totally unique. I like the premise of it and how it turned out. Could fit into multiple genres, depending on any type of arrangement one wanted to put to it.
Part of my "Judge" series of old western songs that I like to write whenever an idea pops in my head. This one is about a poor man in the old west with a family to feed, and he decides that some people have too much and he doesn't have nearly enough. He decides to become an outlaw. This was a very true story for the time, though it's not based on any real-life person.
