WOW!!! Now that's a story! The music plays out the drama well. As a child I bet that was really something to have gone through. Great job

Hi Butch,
Coming from a big family, also without much, I enjoyed reading your BIO. Songs from home always seem to have that extra touch of felt emotion. The story in your song 'The midwife' was amazing. I saw you on the Country Rose show.......she always features good talent!
