Jonny “Corndawg” Fritz is not your typical country singer. The former Nashville / current Brooklyn resident’s new full length album – the cheekily titled Down on The Bikini Line – is another Kickstarter funded success (see Marissa Nadler review). With a background in leather work, a passion for running (he’s no stranger to marathons), and a motorcycle as his chariot for touring since he dropped out of school in 2001, this country rocker is playing hard and leaving no stone unturned by his sharp wit and scathing humor. He may be irreverent, but he can also be sincere, and his brand of tell it like it is with twang is catching the eye of the alt-country music scene, as Corndawg has toured with the esteemed likes of Deer Tick, Dawes, Futurebirds, J. Roddy Walston & the Business, and Wanda Jackson to name a few. Do yourself a favor and treat yourself to a Corndawg. – Written by JFelton
