Moker Jarrett ASCAP with Lucky Stiff, a classic rock group from Jacksonville, Florida has released Ready to Fly a new CD under Run to the Sun Publishing/ASCAP.
Moker Jarrett grew up in the coastal area of Northeast Florida. His dad was a coach and one of his coaching buddies gave Moker his nickname at around age six. Obviously it stuck like glue. The folk masses at St. Paul's were among his first guitar/vocal conquests and that has turned into a lifetime of writing and performing songs. In addition to his dad, his granny and mom were big influences of his outlook on life. My wife gives me a huge dose of support to continue writing at this level. Country has become a favorite genre of Moker's and his main co-writer, Dale Peaden from Panama City Florida shares 13 of the 17 cuts on the recently released CD "Cut This". This team shares a mix of uptempos and heartfelt tunes and is sure to be on their way to garnering a string of country hits. You'll go away humming the melodies and chorus lines and these songs draw you in and make you feel like you're right there in the story. Still performing at local festivals Moker's group "Moker Jarrett with Lucky Stiff"a Jacksonville Florida based power trio is a collection of veteran performers (Moker Jarrett from Jacksonville, guitars, vocals, & songwriter, Jim Rohl,from Cincinnatti drums, Billy Smith, from Philadelphia, bass guitar, & vocals) commited to having a good time, writing cuttable original material for the country and pop/rock markets, and stayin' true to our roots of music with a groove. Music should make your body move!

Lyrics
EAST NASHVILLE (Joe Ryan 6/2012) V A sky lined in silver Streets paved in gold On a Greyhound to Nashville I turned 19 years old Dreamin bout money The women and the fame Got a second hand Fender And a pocket full of change V Found a small flat On the east side of town Where visions of stardom Lay scattered around These songwriter suburbs Filled with the dreams Of mailbox money And black limosuines Ch Steel guitars echo through the hilltops Fiddles gently whisper through the trees Pray that fame can find me here in Nashville Living in East Nashville Tennessee V Sweepin out a warehouse Ten hours a day Ain't no good living Barely pays my way Nights playin this Fender Living on the dream Of mailbox money And black limousines Ch Steel guitars echo through the hilltops Fiddles gently whisper through the trees Pray that fame can find me here in Nashville Living in East Nashville Tennessee Br These smoky eastside bars Have launched a thousand stars Ain't no way I'm ever going home (Out) A sky lined in silver Streets paved in gold On the east side of Nashville
