Meet Your Host Artist - Kenny Sharp
 

​Kenny Sharp is a Nashville-based soul and country artist with a voice that hits you straight in the heart. Blending Southern grit with smooth R&B roots, Kenny’s style—known as Brown Liquor Music—is all groove, all truth, and all heart.
 

When he’s not writing and performing, Kenny’s also a sought-after mixologist in Nashville’s underground cocktail scene. He doesn’t just write songs that go down smooth—he mixes drinks to match. On The Irish Mix Tape, he’ll be serving both: stories and soul, poured straight from the source.
 

Expect unplugged sets, whiskey tastings, and good conversation—led by an artist who knows how to light up a room without turning up the volume.
