The Glory Road Tour goes worldwide in 2024!
Kenyon Grey filmed (live)!
This is a 50-minute CCM concert/show/video created from a dream I had. Beginning with the creation story. In the Beginning was the WORD and the WORD was with GOD. (John 1:1)
It's a contained anthology of my walk with JESUS CHRIST.
Each song is a mini episode, taken from my life.
Its reflective of the twist and turns that lead each of us to JESUS.
CHRIST is the spoken word of GOD, manifested in the flesh. He is all love and hated for it.
The show ends with a five-song testimony of the sacrifice JESUS made.
What he actually did for us.
...and if you don't know who CHRIST is, it's a revelation of what HE can do for you.

Cherish the Lullabies
Cherish the Lullabies" is written about falling in love with a single mother. She's a package deal! If a man can't find a place in his heart for her children, then he won't love her effectively. When my wife and I were dating, I overheard her singing lullabies to her kiddos while she was putting them to bed. I cherish the memory as it was the moment I fell in love with the entire package.
The reviews are coming in ....

Life Brand New
Disenchanted with relationships, I met my wife backstage after a performance. She was beautiful, in a leopard dress and cowboy boots, my kryptonite! She had a sweet, sassy demeaner. A career woman, who had her own life and a strong Christian faith. I found her refreshing, and not like anyone I had ever known. Drawn to each other, we began to wonder what life together might look like. She let me know very early on that she was the marrying kind. I realized a woman like her doesn’t come along very often.

When Angels Cry
Kenyon had just finished washing his car and was detailing the interior. His 2-year-old daughter snuck out of the house, crawled through a mud puddle, and climbed on top of the car, leaving muddy footprints all over the hood and windshield. She just wanted to say ‘hi’ to dad. A week later she and her brother were gone. Their mother took them out of state and disappeared. Those footprints were all Kenyon had left of his children. He couldn't wash the car. Months later, after exhausting every means of finding them, Kenyon was driving along an old highway and it started to rain. He panicked, swerved to the side of the road, jumped out and stood over the footprints sobbing, trying to cover them with his hands to prevent them from being washed away. He lost the battle and upon returning to an empty house, Kenyon wrote this song.
A note from Kenyon: “This song goes out to everyone with missing children, I know your pain, I honor you and grieve with you.”

Song Review
Song: When Angels Cry
Overall Impression: “When Angels Cry” is a touching and thoughtful New Country song by Kenyon Grey. Emitting a feel-good energy, this tune grooves forward at a moderate tempo creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. It reads like a loving message from a father to his young daughter and encapsulates the essence of that unbreakable bond. There are Christian underpinnings that add to the feeling of family, which is present throughout the entire song. Grey sings with an approachable yet commanding presence. It is the perfect voice for a tune like this, and blends in seamlessly with the lyrics. Particular to “When Angels Cry” is its driving and exciting chorus. It is here where the tune seems to take on new life and turns up the energy. With the release of "When Angels Cry", Kenyon Grey gives listeners a look into his life and reminds us of the importance of family.
Strongest Point(s): The message in "When Angels Cry" is very strong and touching. For those who have ever had to be away from loved ones for a time, it is extremely relatable. The guitar work is also very well done. The solo makes just strong enough of a statement to be memorable and push the tune forward but does not steal the light. As mentioned above, the chorus has a noticeably different sound than the rest of the tune. It takes on a bit more of a Rock edge and really increases the enthusiasm. This is a very easy and enjoyable listen by Kenyon Grey that shows promise for his work.
Audience Appeal:
Fans of Country and Christian Country will dig Kenyon Grey's new tune When Angels Cry.
