“Rowdy, yet heartfelt country music with a rock n roll heart.”
Ithaca, NY-based Drew Kiddoo and The Blackouts (pronounced kih-doo) have been crafting their distinctive brand of all- original country music for nearly a decade. Drawing inspiration from the golden era of American music, they fuse 60s honky-tonk and classic country with a gritty rockabilly edge—creating a sound that’s as twangy as it is dark.

Diggin’ My Own Graveyard (The BlackBear Solo Session)
“Drew Kiddoo steps out of The Blackouts’ shadow and straight into the dirt with Diggin’ My Own Graveyard, a raw, roots-soaked solo effort that feels equal parts confession and resurrection. The record trades swagger for soul, wrapping gritty Americana, haunted blues, and midnight folk around Kiddoo’s smoky vocals and dust-bitten storytelling. Every track sounds like it was recorded by candlelight in a room that’s seen too many ghosts — intimate, unvarnished, and brimming with emotional bite. It’s not a polished record; it’s a lived-in one, and that’s exactly what makes it hit so hard.”
