My band is really just me.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I have been writing songs for 20 years. I love all sorts of songs but have settled with Country and Blue Grass. I have played at the Oklahoma Opry and won several songwriting and vocal contests. This song was a co-write with a friend for Oklahoma her name is Shelley Richter. I wanted to mention her as a co-writer.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I have played live at the Oklahoma Opry and Second Fret. I have played in song contests and especially songwriters contests. I was once in line to play on You Can Be a Star but they didn't need me. I was in Nashville waiting to be called in case someone who was scheduled fell through. Never got the call Bummer.
Your musical influences
Hank Williams is the songwriter I most admire. I didn't care for his lifestyle but he sure could write. The words are the Message the Music is the messenger.
What equipment do you use?
Boss BR-8, Boss DR-770, Takamine guitar, Fender bass.
Anything else?
Reality is just a picture in my mind to change it I simply see a different picture than the one I have been taught to accept.
