Transplanted from Colorado to Black Diamond, Alberta, Al “Doc” Mehl traces his family roots to central Kansas, where his grandfather raised six children on a horse-and-plow homestead. With one foot in the past and one in the present, Doc weaves the history and the mystery of the West into his original “west-clectic” music and cowboy poetry. Doc Mehl’s spoken-word album “The Great Divide” was named “Cowboy Poetry CD of the Year” by both the Western Music Association and the Academy of Western Artists. In the words of Rick Huff (as published in The Western Way magazine), “There’s a unique mind at work here that may be one of a kind in the Western Music arena.” And songwriter Jon Chandler comments, “Listening to Doc is like having Lyle Lovett in one ear…and Tommy Smothers in the other!” Learn more at DocMehl.com.
