I've been in the entertainment busines...in some form or fashion...for many years. I got into music purely by accident and ended up fronting a band out of Austin in '96. I struck out on my own in '98 and have, through those years, assembled a group of stellar players that have the same drive to produce a high quality "show" each time we play...rather than a standard "bar band" type situation. One of the highest compliments that we have ever received was when we were told it was more like a "concert" than just a "dance".
I firmly believe that the folks that pay money to get in the door of a venue that we are playing deserve to get every penny of their money back, with a little extra, in the form of great music and ENTERTAINMENT! I feel as though as long as we keep that focus we will continue to be sucessful as a group.
Your musical influences
Wow...tough question. You'd think as much as I had been asked this one I would have an answer ready to go. I kinda do though....
Without naming names...I'm really into guys and gals that entertain...The music is super important...don't get me wrong...but the entertainment value of a live show, to me, is WAY up there.
If I had to name one though...it would be George Strait. He has the longevity that one dreams about having and the ability, the knack, for picking the "perfect" songs for him. How can you NOT look up to a guy like that?

Les,
I play lead guitar and write for a group named Southern Limits.
I can really hear the Chris Ledoux in your voice. I LOVE everything you said about entertaining and people getting their money's worth. EXACTLY.
If only everyone would agree with us, we'd never see a bad show.
Keep it up bro.
Your friend,
Andrew Bray
