Jerry Kilgore spent the last several years re-grouping, playing, writing new songs and recording, figuring out his next move. In 2007 he formed his own label and released his second album Loaded and Empty, which he also produced. "I always kept writing, and I just accumulated enough songs that I felt would be a good record," Kilgore states. "I cut it in pieces, a few songs here and a few songs there, until it led to having a finished record." Songs like "What's It Take To Get A Drink In Here", "Down On My Luck", "Loaded and Empty" and "Both Be On Our Way" continue in the Kilgore tradition of classic-yet-contemporary country. "There was never really any thought about having to find the right single and picking the right song like I did on the Virgin project," Kilgore says. "You know, you kinda look at 'What can I do that radio will like?' This record I didn't think about any of that; I went in and cut songs the way I thought they should sound, and the songs I liked."
Loaded and Empty is Jerry Kilgore's strongest work to date, and the word of mouth has been tremendous. "I've been selling CDs overseas, to a lot of radio guys that are still playing Love Trip over there, and I'm getting really great response from this record, great reviews," Kilgore says. He's working on distribution, shooting a video, planning a tour and writing more songs, and on the strength of Loaded and Empty it's clear that Jerry Kilgore is well on his way.
