Kent Agee first gained recognition as the creator and lead-singer of the Warner/Chappell rock band, “Jane His Wife”.  The visually striking, sonically lush band, with George Bradfute-guitar, Kyle Miller-bass and Scott Miller-drums, played to standing-room-only audiences and featured Agee’s intense presence and his transformative lyrics. The band was courted by labels from L.A. to London, but the music business was in a state of change and Nashville wasn’t the place to birth a band that sounded like Pink Floyd meets the Doors. So, in spite of an international buzz, Jane His Wife never got a record out. But Kent had created fans of his writing on Music Row.

As a staff writer for Warner-Chapell, Sony, then Wrensong, Windswept-Pacific and RPM Music, Agee focused on writing songs for other artists. During that time, and later writing for his own publishing company, Bolt Upright, Kent had songs recorded  by artists from Barbra Streisand to Rodney Atkins to Tom Keifer among many others. He became recognized in the industry as a diverse writer of rich, image driven lyrics, and songs that are always honest and often brilliant. 

Kent’s first solo project, “Fields and Fences” was an Americana record, beautifully bridging his transition back from writer to artist. The song, “Omens of the End” off of that record was picked by music journalist Bob Oermann as one of the best indie releases of the year. Now, with two new EP’s just out, “The Meteorite” and “Crop Circles”, Kent is picking up where Jane His Wife left off, combining the creative impulses and vision he had then with the craft he’s developed and the wisdom he’s acquired since,  using words and imagery like a combination lock to open up the mystery and meaning of being human.
