Country Newcomer Jason Link talks about his latest record and also showcases his talents at the infamous Legends Corner in Nashville, TN. Country music may be running through Jason Link's veins, but when you first meet this modern-edged, twenty-five year old from Freeman, Virginia, it's hard to tell he was raised on a 900-acre tobacco farm that goes back four generations. In fact, you may think he was more of a new generation country-rocker with hair falling conspicuously into a spiky form of bedhead sexiness and a lean physique sporting an array of rumpled designer duds, including a cowboy hat that he modified himself by spray painting and scruffing up into its own innovative texture. But regardless of his urban-esque appeal, this real world 'country boy' can belt out a tune with just enough twang that would be best described as George Strait meets Hank Williams, Jr. with a serving of Kenny Chesney on the side. And that doesn't even cover the fact that he's as good of a guitar player, if not better, than his fellow artists who currently drive the country music scene. However, Link is well aware that possessing the talent to have mastered the guitar and banjo is not all it takes for him to make his dreams a reality...it's about having great songs.
