The O'Kanes were an American country music duo, composed of Jamie O'Hara and Kieran Kane, both vocalists and guitarists.[1] Active between 1986 and 1990, the duo recorded three albums for Columbia Records and charted seven singles on the Billboard Hot Country Singles (now Hot Country Songs) chart, including "Can't Stop My Heart from Loving You".[1] Kane charted seven singles of his own in the early 1980s, and O'Hara won a Grammy Award for co-writing "Grandpa (Tell Me 'Bout the Good Ol' Days)", a hit for The Judds.[1] After they disbanded in 1990, both members pursued solo careers, and Kane founded a record label named Dead Reckoning Records.[2]
