Montgomery Gentry’s Eddie Montgomery has broken his silence on the tragic death of his duo partner Troy Gentry

Montgomery Gentry’s Eddie Montgomery has spoken about the tragic death of his duo partner Troy Gentry in a helicopter crash on September 8. “Our world was turned upside down in an instant, and nothing could have prepared us for this. Over the past few months me and T-Roy have been working on what I think is the best record of our career. In the last few weeks we had been talking about what our first single would be. Then on September 8, none of that mattered.”

Eddie talked about their new single, “Better Me,” calling it “a song we all loved and Troy sings his ass off on it. It speaks volumes about his life, and who he had become, and everybody he touched and how much he loved his family. I am so proud of this song and also to call him my friend, my family, my brother for 30 years.” We want to pass along our continued prayers to the friends and family of Troy Gentry
