Conrad Bigknife

When I was 13 years old, I wanted to be an Elvis impersonator when I grew up!” Conrad Bigknife confesses with an embarrassed laugh. “I just wanted to be on stage so bad and in the 1980’s there were these three kind of famous Elvis impersonators and that seemed like a pretty good way to make a living.” As a teen Bigknife may have taken a lot of inspiration from The King, but as an adult, he’s found a sound all of his own.

- Conrad Bigknife’s third album, “Full Circle” is a mix of soaring country vocals, shimmering guitars and choruses so catchy, they’ll remind you of the first time you heard “Take it Easy” from The Eagles. “Hearts” has all the makings of a modern day country hit, but with none of the over-produced glitz. There’s a simple beauty to these songs that is worth paying attention to.
