The grandson of famed country music publishing executive Donna Hilley, songwriting is in Mitchell Tenpenny's blood. He has the inborn understanding of how details bring lyrics alive and the contemporary sensibilities to craft songs that country music fans crave. His new eight-song EP Midtown Diaries distills his gift into infectious jams about girls and small towns, anthemic odes to love and raw, rapid-fire heartbreak. Ignited by the juxtaposition of Tenpenny and Jordan Schmidt's progressive co-production and Tenpenny's distinct, textured vocals, Midtown Diaries is the coming-of-age soundtrack for country fans of every vintage.
