The Rugged Revival x Daniel Cain

Daniel Cain is a singer/songwriter from Stanford, Kentucky, USA. His music mirrors his Appalachian roots and family upbringing, so far, blending outlaw country, grassy folk, roots rock, and psychedelic blues. With influence from Chris Stapleton to Chris Cornell, he connects it all and does so with his own grit.

Dubbed Kentucky’s Rising Star of Country Music in ‘23 by Renfro Valley, as well as an act to watch by Whiskey Riff and Kentucky Country Music blogs, Cain’s path and promise came to him as surprise as Cain began his public performing career in early 2021 only in hopes to honor his now late father, Jeff, who inspired Daniel to write and play like he did.

With Cain’s authentic penmanship, impressive picking, and a deep, soulful, gravelly voice like you’ve never heard before, it doesn’t take long to see why this young man is on the rise.
