Kristy Lee Cook - Broken Bow Records

Broken Bow Records

On August 4, 2010 it was announced Cook had signed with Broken Bow Records.

On October 16, 2012, Cook's first single, "Airborne Ranger Infantry", from Broken Bow Records was released. She was inspired to write the songs after reading poems written by her father, Larry Cook, about his experiences in the Army during the Vietnam War. "We took lines directly from the poems and put them into the song," Kristy says. "I wouldn't have written the song if my dad hadn't written those poems, because he doesn't really talk about much. The cool thing is that it gives perspective to someone who doesn't know what it's like to know how they feel and what they're experiencing. It was really important for us to make sure it was right, and exactly what they would say."

Famous quotes containing the words broken, bow and/or records:

    When our two dusts with Waller’s shall be laid,
    Siftings on siftings in oblivion,
    Till change hath broken down
    All things save Beauty alone.
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    The worth that worthiness should move
    Is love, that is the bow of Love.
    And love as well the foster can
    As can the mighty nobleman.
    Sweet saint, ‘tis true you worthy be,
    Yet without love nought worth to me.
    Fulke Greville (1554–1628)

    What a wonderful faculty is memory!—the most mysterious and inexplicable in the great riddle of life; that plastic tablet on which the Almighty registers with unerring fidelity the records of being, making it the depository of all our words, thoughts and deeds—this faithful witness against us for good or evil.
    Susanna Moodie (1803–1885)
