I was born about 20 miles south of Alexandria, LA. in a little town named LeCompte. It was October 13, 1941. We moved to Baton Rouge, LA when I was about 2 years old and I lived there until I was 10 then moved to Baker, LA just north of Baton Rouge. I went into the US Navy right out of high school. I started singing in nightclubs when I was 14 years old, and when I got out of the service I just went right back to it. I Moved to Nashville in 1978 and worked at just about every kind of job a man could work at. However, the songwriter hat that I am wearing now fits better than any hat I have ever worn. I really enjoy writing and singing more than I ever have before in my lifetime.
I cut my first album a few years ago and have been enjoying every thing it has done for me. I did it on Perfect Love Records, and and then the owner and president of BonTex Records heard it and had his board review it for consideration on their label. To make a long story short it is now on BonTex Records. I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I enjoyed recording it.
