Speaking Words Of Wisdom - Huckabee! Matt & Jared Record New Song For 2012 Season

Matt and Jared have recorded another great song as a tribute to Mike Huckabee.  They were a YouTube hit in the 2008 campaign and appeared with Governor at multiple rallies on the campaign trail.


There latest song is a political take-off with the theme "Speaking Words Of Wisdom - Huckabee!"  Ben Smith from Politico.com mentioned the song last week and that helped fuel 10,000 views in the first two days!




Matt Robins and Jared Shelton have been Huckabee fans since 2007, when Jared showed Matt an Iowa based campaign commercial featuring Chuck Norris, and according to Matt, he “ended up agreeing with pretty much everything he stood for.”  
A few months later, in December of 2007, a family friend of Jared’s showed the duo a parody video to “Here Comes Santa Claus” posted on Huckabee’s website, and suggested that they attempt the same endeavor. A half hour later Matt had penned the lyrics to their most watched YouTube video, “Breakfast at Huckabees”, which earned enough feedback, both positive and negative, that the duo decided to make a few more videos, based on songs that are easily identifiable within their age group, which continued to perform well on YouTube.  
Eventually they were recognized by the Governor himself and invited to perform their songs at rallies and events in South Carolina in February of 2008.  Source - USElectionNews.org
We hope to have Matt and Jared on an upcoming radio show on the Radio Stuck On Huck show Thursdays at 9 p.m. CST. - Look for descriptions for upcoming shows at HuckRadio.com.
