Story

I've been writing, performing, and entertaining for the last 18 years. I am a singer/songwriter that currently sings as a solo act in The Village Squares as well as the country clubs around the area. In 2010 I signed with a label in Atlanta (Reign Forever Group) and we cut a song I wrote with my good friend CJ Solar called Don't Take the Beer. It went to radio and digital media and did pretty well however after going through a divorce I cut ties with the label and moved back to Florida in 2012. Now I perform steadily in the area as a solo act. I am just a vocalist, lyricist, and performer with a decent range who is easy going and just wants to entertain, write some good music, and build an even larger fan base.

What is music to you? What does it give you?

Music is in my blood, my dad listened to music pretty much every second of the day, that he could. Some of my earliest memories are of him playing music from Charlie Daniels, Pink Floyd, Boston, Peter Frampton, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. He had a wide range of tastes and loved it all, which transferred to me. He remodeled our basement into a billiards, dart and bar, a work shop and laundry room, and my new bedroom. Many nights were spent downstairs listening to music, playing pool, and drinking a beer every now and then. First song I ever just fell in love with and played it over and over again was Eddie Rabbit's "Every Which Way But Loose" i sang it every day much to my step-moms disapproval.

What is your music dream?

To write some, truly good, original music professionally that gets picked up and cut by artists. To finish my Album "The Craft" and get it produced. To continue to sing and entertain people around our area and just to have fun. To one day put together a 3 day show with some of the best local acoustic guitarist up on a stage just playing music that influenced them and taking requests from the audience, and just making each night a close and personal connection with music and the audience. Call it "Jam Session Fest" think it would be a hit.
