Two - KANE was formed in 1998 by Christian Kane & Steve Carlson. Both are accomplished songwriters and guitarists whose passion to create and share their special breed of "outlaw country" soon became a Los Angeles phenomenon. Packing such hot spots as The Viper Room and The Mint, Christian and Steve became well known in the L.A. community for their strong original songwriting and awesome high-energy performances.
KANE has received airplay from #1 LA country music station KZLA, been voted the winner of the 2005 Country Thunder Young Guns Contest, been voted one of L.A.'s 100 Hottest Unsigned Bands by industry magazine Music Connection, and Rock City News and E Media Wire Service describe KANE in one word: "Killer." Despite somewhat limited touring, KANE’s self-released debut CD sold over 4,500 copies in the US, with almost half those copies selling in countries as far away as Malaysia, Germany, Australia and Brazil. Corporate shakeups led to KANE's second album, the Sony Sessions, being shelved.
Not content to stay an L.A. phenomenon, the two began taking regular trips to Nashville to polish their writing chops. Nashville exposed them to the thrill of collaborating with some of the best songwriters in the world. Longtime friend and Bigger Picture partner Michael Powers introduced them to Bob Ezrin, who immediately recognized KANE’s potential. Christian rounded up one of his favorite creative partners in Jimmie Lee Sloas and KANE soon found a new home recording in partnership with Bigger Picture Group.
Produced by the legendary Bob Ezrin and Jimmie Lee Sloas, KANE's new debut album, entitled “The House Rules,” drops this fall (2010) on the Outlaw Saints label, a partnership with Bigger Picture Group. On this album EMI songwriters Christian and Steve collaborate with friends Blair Daly, Brett James, David Lee Murphy, Casey Beathard, Jerrod Niemann and others.

They changed their name to Cortizone and released one album "Selling Out For The Sucker".

Kane Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Well I left my home hit the open road while I got so many things on the go
Yea my minds been racing shoes laced and feet pacing
Times ticking on and just can't be replaced I've just
Got to let go
Ease my mind in the unknown
Hold up hold up just a minute
Take a look around too
Stop your head from spinning
Oh slow
Down
Well I'm pleasantly lost in my own thoughts in my own presence
Well untangle the knots and I'll learn from all of these lessons
Ohhh ya
Escape the beaten path
Carving sculptures that will last
Like the totems on the wall
I will learn from what has passed
I will navigate the trees
As far as the eyes can see
Building bridges to the clouds just to see if I'm allowed
To plant my body and my soul in the earths soil below
Watch the roots latch on to all the love that has grown
I've just got to let go
Ease my mind in the unknown
Hold up hold up just a minute
Take a look around to stop your head
Stop your head from spinning
Oh slow
Slow down slow down just a second
Take a look around too
Stop yourself
Stop yourself from sinking
Oh slow down
Slow down
Slow down
Slow down
Well I'm pleasantly lost in my own thoughts in my own presence
Well untangle the knots and I'll learn from all of these lessons
Well I'm pleasantly lost in my thoughts in my own presence
Untangle the knots and I'll learn from all these lessons I've just
Got to let go
Ease my mind in the unknown
Hold up hold up just a minute
Take a look around to stop your head
Stop your head from spinning
Oh slow
Slow down slow down just a second
Take a look around too
Stop yourself
Stop yourself from sinking
Oh slow down
Slow down
Oh slow down
In the song "Can't Slow Down," Kane reflects upon feeling overwhelmed and the need to escape from the chaos of life. The opening lines depict the singer sitting by a river watching the water flow, a scene of calmness and tranquility amidst the chaos. Kane then reveals that he's left home to hit the open road with many things going on in his life. His mind is racing, and his feet are pacing, but he knows that time is ticking away and cannot be regained. He acknowledges that he needs to let go and ease his mind in the unknown. The lyrics suggest that Kane is seeking a break from the rush by escaping the beaten path and taking his time to explore the world around him.
The chorus serves as a reminder to slow down and take a look at our surroundings to stop our heads from spinning. The line "Stop yourself from sinking" emphasizes the need to be mindful and present in the moment to avoid getting bogged down. In the second verse, Kane emphasizes the importance of learning from experiences, whether good or bad, to move forward in life. The lyrics describe the creation of sculptures that will last, like the totems on the wall. Kane navigates the trees and builds bridges to the clouds, all in an attempt to understand himself better and the world around him.
Overall, "Can't Slow Down" is a message of self-reflection and the need to slow down and be mindful amidst the chaos of life. It encourages us to let go of our worries and embrace the unknown. Through exploration and learning, we can create a lasting impact and find peace within ourselves.
