Montgomery Gentry Montgomery Gentry is not the name of one person, but two (that is to say that they are a duo). Their New Country sound started off with the duo tipping their hat to Honky-Tonk inspired New Traditionalists, but they have ... tried their hand at more uptempo Southern Rock styles. Their songs, harmonies, and instrumentation all come together to form a chemistry that is not only believable, but also enjoyable.

Montgomery Gentry is a duo that consists of Eddie Montgomery and Troy Gentry. They have been together since the 1990's and they used to be in a band with Eddie's brother John Michael Montgomery, who is ... a big-time country star. They went through several ideas for a name for themselves and finally came up with Montgomery Gentry and they stuck to it.

Harley-riding duo Montgomery Gentry has rocked the country music world since 1999 with their blue-collar anthems and tales of life, love and patriotism. Winners of numerous national awards, they were recently nominated for the 2007 Academy of Country Music Award for Top Vocal Duo. Montgomery Gentry will rock Club H.O.G. DOWN HOME on Friday, August 24, at the Harley stage.
Country duo Montgomery Gentry evokes the sound and spirit of Southern rockers like Lynyrd Skynyrd, [T]he Marshall Tucker Band, and Charlie Daniels, painting themselves as rowdy redneck rebels who still hold small-town values. Eddie Montgomery and Troy Gentry first met in Early Tymz, a Lexington, KY, band led by Montgomery's brother, future country star John Michael Montgomery. Both Eddie and Troy had been performing on the local club scene since their teenage years, the former as a drummer in his father's band. After Early Tymz broke up, a new group called Young Country formed from its ashes, with John Michael billed out front. He eventually went solo, of course, and Montgomery Gentry first formed not long after, initially calling themselves Deuce.
One of country music’s favored duos and the 2000 CMA Vocal Duo of the Year, Montgomery Gentry, has released a new album. Some People Change is an apt title. And while it suggests a new direction, MG has proven to be reliable with a hot blend of what they deliver best –country with gritty attitude. And across this, their fifth album, attitude, loyalty, introspection, blue-collar pride and family values are the musical touchstones.
Now, with Some People Change, Montgomery Gentry takes yet another important step forward. Some People Change is an incredibly rich collection that reflects the continued maturing of Montgomery Gentry on a number of levels. There is, first of all, a deeper exploration of the issues they have always deemed important.
