Coming off the April release of his fourth full studio album, Beggin’ for More, Park has

been touring relentlessly around the Lone Star and beyond for the past several months

in support of the new record. Debuting at number four on the iTunes country chart, the

record has been the most successful release of his eight-year career. Encompassing his

trademarked style, Park also managed to sneak in some edgy tracks that reveal a whole

new facet of the red dirt kid.

Refusing to dip songs out of the Texas country still, Park stirred things up and was joined

in his songwriting efforts by fellow red dirt heavyweights Cody Johnson and Josh Abbott.

When asked about writing with guys like Johnson and Abbott, Park told us, “Writing is a

very personal thing; you’re sharing personal information with people and it’s a lot easier

when you’re doing it amongst friends.”

He said the familiarity among one another gets the creative juices flowing.

“There’s no correct or exact formula to writing songs,” said Park. “It’s more about being

comfortable with the people you write with. It’s really good writing with people like Cody

or Josh, or even Thom Shepherd and George Ducas. Those are guys that I’ve known for a

long time and we’ve wrote together several times, and it just comes easy with guys like

that.”

Park will kick out the footlights at Wild West for a boot-stompin’ show on November 8.

Tickets for the show are available at tickets.musiconelive.com.

Boy + Kite was formed in 2009 in an

unlikely place: a hot tub. Back then, Boy +

Kite’s frontman Darvin Jones and vocalist/

guitarist Beth Puorro would often sneak

into a spa on the outskirts of Austin to

swim and pretend to be members of

the bourgeoisie. They recorded their

first three tracks as a duo in a studio in

November 2009. After recording, the two

joined forces with Chris (drummer) and

Giuseppe (bass) in the spring of 2010.

Boy + Kite released their debut album Go

Fly the summer of 2011. Since the release

of Go Fly, they have been flying high and

opening up for acts such as Ume, Quiet

Company, and The Toadies. The band

also hit the Top 10 Charts on KUT 90.5 in

Austin. Their first follow up to their full

length Go Fly is a new 5-song EP We Can

Go Anywhere We Want.

Boy + Kite will be performing at True Love

on November 2nd at 8pm.
