Artist description Daughter of the late 50-60s Mercury recording artist, Red Kirk, I found that creating music (and fighting Nashville) was an inherited mission. I write songs for real women, (not bellybuttons) and also to give men a clue as to what women REALLY think and feel. Guess my next claim to fame would be my brother, CHRIS KIRK, The Knife Man of Dish-Net's SMOKY MOUNTAIN NETWORK! Talk about a fabulous guitarist! Check out what Chris has to offer on SMN. He's like a big-mouth, right-wing, Jesus lovin, Letterman. My heritage is Scotch/Cherokee and I have been reared lovingly in the Paternal arms of the Appalachian Mountains. (Note: "Appalachia" is pronouced with "short 'A' sounds" only for, the Cherokee nation had no "long 'A' sound" in their vocabulary.) Growing and training with a professional of the highest class, Red Kirk of Mercury, I was taught humility, honesty, and applying art to the most valuable cause. I feel drawn to represent my nation as an all American woman who acts as the nemisis of the Industry Suits and ties in mid-life crisis. Ladies, I'm singing your daily spoken or even unspoke words...Consider a big mouth best girl bud who says, "yea, I understand where your heart is." We are all American moms, wives, thriving or surviving singles, working and worrying, loving,heartbroken, and soft. And I am Piper Kirk, The All AMERICANA Woman! We're gonna be good friends!
