well it's my nickname so no great thought went into it. alternates dusty or my least favorite crusty

yes occasionaly at churches, nursing homes, in the future maybe rehabs and prisons who knows I never say never I just want to be more active overall. I really enjoy the songwriting aspect and spend most of my time writing, rehearsing, learning, and hopefully recording. getting feedback from a crowd or individual is always great.

well for me just the ability to share with other artists, and music lovers is super cool.

of course but the fun part is just being a songwriter just expressing yourself in a way which others can relate so we all know we're never really alone. Did that sound corny?

currently making history

I am a huge music lover and I try to stay open minded about all art. As far as genres mostly rock, country, gospel, contemporary christian, blues, film scores, whatever catches my eye (ear).

I've travelled some on family vacations or with a job but pretty much always hung around the same neighborhood. Mississippi is home of the blues, birthplace of the father of country music (jimmie rogers) and the king of rock n roll and is probably considered the buckle of the bible belt. It's still a melting pot of different styles and I know its a part of me having been raised here.

an epiphone acoustic, a yamaha digital piano, soon I hope to be getting a home studio of some type and a new martin acoustic. I've got a pretty big wishlist.
