Tommy Webb is from Langley, Kentucky located in Floyd County, near the well-known Highway Route 23 that so many award-winning Country and Bluegrass music artists have originated.

The first A sided single written by Tommy Webb, “Daddy Was The Backbone” reflects on life growing up in Eastern Kentucky and those wonderful and much simpler times. The song takes us back to some of Webb’s special memories from his childhood in Langley Kentucky and shares the stories of how hard mom and dad worked to raise their family.

“This song reminds me of another song written years ago ‘Heartland’ which also reflects on days gone by and my fond memories of the way it used to be” – Tommy Webb

Produced by Ronnie Stewart and Buddy Young, “Daddy Was The Backbone” includes performances by Tommy Webb (Lead Vocals, Guitar), Ron Stewart (Mandolin, Fiddle) and Harold Nixon (Harmony Vocals, Upright)

The second A sided single, a gospel classic, “Honey In The Rock” rejoices about being in heaven with the Lord where there’s honey in the rock for all. Webbs powerful spirit filled performance leaves no doubt that he has drawn from his early days growing up in Langley Kentucky singing in church and feeling the spiritual message in these lyrics.
