These two guys first started performing in two separate bands back in the early 90's. After Gentry was unable to sign a record deal, he hooked up with Montgomery and they were signed in 1999. Also in 1999, they were awarded Best New Country Artist at the American Music Awards. Here is Montgomery Gentry's #1 hit from 2005 'Something to be Proud of'.
