The Byron Chamber of Commerce along with 102.3 The Coyote are excited to welcome Rockford's own Mo Pitney Saturday night of ByronFest, July 11th. When Mo Pitney sings "let me tell you about country" in his debut single, he's doing more than telling. He's showing. Appropriately titled, the song "Country" is as much positioning statement as introduction. In three minutes and 16 seconds, it is almost precisely who he is in word and deed. The vocal delivery, storytelling, musicianship and reflections of his outdoor lifestyle – as well as faith, family and patriotism – offer a spot-on portrayal. Joined by early fan favorites "Clean Up On Aisle Five" and "Come Do A Little Life," the song carves an unmistakably country yet completely fresh groove for the genre. In short, it sounds like nothing else, but absolutely belongs.
The Huffington Post annoucned that Mo is one of the country artists to watch in the year 2015.
Billboard Magazine has named Mo Pitney as a hot country artist to watch in 2015.
Rolling Stone Country say's Mo is one to watch in 2015.
