Why this name?

"I had no choice my Mom gave it to me at birth!"

Do you play live?

I do play live and I like it very much, country music in Michigan is huge! My most special moments include headlining the Detroit's Best Country Concert, and working the same stage as some of the Country Greats mentioned above.

How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?

For starters, it gives artists like me a chance to be heard. No big label to shell out the bucks to the Program directors at radio stations means independant artists like me never get a chanceto be heard because of money, not because of talent.

Would you sign a record contract with a major label?

In a heartbeat! That is every performers goal is to have a major label sign them. The money and clout of a major label can launch a career. If you notice on American Idol, the clout of major labels bring them immediate fame and fortune.

Anything else...?

Randy's Grandmother was a major influence on him musically as he grew up. He believed in him and his talent. At the age of 5 she would sneak him into Honky Tonk Jamborees where the bands would let him sing. And before he was through someone would pass a hat around and he'd leave with 15 or 20 dollars. This continued and when he was 19 she took him to a Honky Tonk where he formed his first band. After that, TV appearances, Radio, and some of the best clubs in Michigan came calling.
