Chris Knight is Back in Tyler Tonight! [VIDEO]

He may have been born in Kentucky, and still make his home there, but Chris Knight is as as Texan as an Kentuckian can get. Governor Rick Perry decreed the singer/songwriter an official honorary Texan, he's even got the papers -- which he carries with him when traveling through the Lone Stat State, for when he gets stopped by "the law."

Here's what he told me recently about his Texan status,

It’s probably all politics and marketing, all that kind of thing. I’ve been coming to Texas for a long time… and got established playing music… Everyone either thought I was from Texas, or denied that I wasn’t from Texas. So we thought it’d be a good idea to see if we could make that happen.

Here's our conversation.

Knight's a musical genius, he's written songs that Randy Travis, John Anderson, Blake Shelton and Cross Canadian Ragweed have all cut and is revered within the music scene.
