The name that was given to me at Birth.

I currently play mostly in Southwest Virginia with occasional gigs in West Virginia.
Life is Good.
I manage 2-4 gigs a week.
In July 2006, I drove over 3000 miles to and from gigs and made the most Money I've made in one Month since I started playing Music full-time professionally.
Things are definitely looking up.


Last year I played in Tennessee, North Carolina, Ohio and many other places.
However, since I'm now making more money closer to home, I see no reason to be driving 600-1200 miles a week like I did last year.

Last year, I played the
"Little Chicago" Blues Festival in Johnson City,TN
The Blues & Brews Festival at Snowshoe Ski resort in Snowshoe, WV where I shared the bill with Bob Margolin & Carey Bell (former members of the Muddy Waters Band)
I also played some great gigs in various States in the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States

No way.
I've had a couple offers but, I turned them down.

After playing in a Local "Cover" band for around 8 months and literally not going anywhere,,,I decided to strike out on my own and pursue a Solo career.

Two Months after quitting the band,,,I had my first #1 song on the World-Wide Blues charts here at Soundclick with "Trouble Blues".

My Music has been featured throughout the United States on Radio Stations such as
KLBC in Long Beach,Ca & WWPV 88.7 FM in Colchester,VT

My latest cd "Playin' the Blues" has already seen two of its songs hit #1 on the Blues charts
since it was released on January 1, 2005.


I've been playing 2-4 gigs a week since April 2005 and I'm looking forward to seeing each and every one of you in person.

My first Blues Festival of 2005 found me playing to a "SOLD OUT" crowd at the "Little Chicago" Blues Festival in Johnson City, TN on April 30



From the Sold Out show in Johnson City,TN to the incredible turn of events at the Blues & Brews Festival on September 17,,,,,, 2005 has been a great year for me and I appreciate everyone who came out to my shows,,,listened to my music here at Soundclick and bought my cd "Playin' the Blues"

In September 2005 I was given a Endorsement deal with Schatten Design guitar pickups in Canada and you will be hearing the Schatten RG-03 Resonator Guitar pickup as a big part of my new "sound" very soon.
