Heroes in Hiding

About Me

Grew up in McGregor,TX listening to the likes of Dire Straits and Pink Floyd. When I was about 7, my father bought me my first acoustic guitar from a gentleman who lost the use of his hands after a stroke. Learning to play along with the Dire Straits album, "Brothers in Arms", my love for creating music began. In the 90s I became submerged in the grunge era. Bands like Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, and Nirvana influenced me into a heavier and much more loosely structured form of music. After starting a family, my taste in music lightened. I became interested in artists like Jimmy Lafave, Ryan Adams, and the old, acoustic blues of Robert Johnson. After hearing my first Johnny Cash record, I realized that singing might actually become a reality. One morning when nobody was home, I recorded my first song, Chris Isaak's Wicked Game. Met with suprisingly positive response, I decided to take the ball and run with it. Hence was born....Heroes in Hiding.

The Blues

If you take just about any song, strip it down, and really listen to it...more than likely you'll find the blues.  Just look at the lyrical content.  How many happy songs are there compared ...
