Lexington, KY—Growing up in Mundy's Landing in Mercer County, Kentucky, Colonel George M. Chinn (1902–1987) earned the nickname “Double Chinn,” thanks to his robust physical frame and family's surname. Robust not only in stature but in personality, Chinn had highly diverse interests and accomplishments, and he was influential not only in Kentucky, but across the world. He played on the 1921 Centre College national championship football team, was personal bodyguard to Governor A. B. “Happy” Chandler, and served in the armed forces during both World Wars, Korea, and Vietnam, becoming an accomplished ordinance engineer and designer of the M-19 automatic grenade launcher.

That is the recipe for Amy Lynn & The Gunshow's style, and it leaves a whole lotta shakin' goin' on!
