Matt Kennon is an American country music singer and songwriter, not to be confused with the jazz musician of the same name. He is the co-writer of Randy Travis' 2009 single "Turn It Around." Later that same year, Kennon signed to BamaJam Records in association with Stroudavarious Records and released his debut single "The Call," which debuted at #55 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts dated for the week of October 17, 2009. Matt Bjorke of Roughstock gave the song a mostly-favorable review, saying that he did not enjoy the song upon first listen because of Kennon's voice, but said that the lyrics are "where it shines." The song also received a positive review from the Georgia Jukebox which said, "Kennon manages to treat the sensitive subject matter with reverence and sincerity encompasses his deep and gritty vocals."
