About Me

*My name is Buck Allen, I'm a NSAI songwriter from Hurley, Mississippi. Nashville has shown some intrest in my songwriting lately. I'll be going up there in June to play, co-write and record. I'll be playing at The Commodore Grill June 24th @ 9:30. I've been in Iraq for the last 26 months working as a combat firefighter. I'm going home June 3RD and I'm ready for a cold beer! I write songs from life's expierences, so I think people can relate to what I'm writing about. Music is a powerful tool, a simple song can do so much to influence other peoples lives. My cd "Made in Iraq" is all country or what I call SWAMPGRASS (it's my own genre). All of the songs you'll hear on my page were recorded in Iraq on my laptop. For $20.00 I bought a microphone and a set of headphones from an Iraqi man. Brorrowed a MAGIX program and recorded "Made in Iraq". The quality of the recording isn't great, but I'm very proud to have out there. I started recording it in a conex trailer when the temp. was over a 100* at night and 130* during the day( IT WAS BLOODY HOT). So give it a listen, I hope you like it. Please leave me feedback, good or bad it all helps me grow as a writer. If you've read all the to here, PLEASE take another moment and send me a friend request. ************************************************************ ****************************************http://www.geocities .com/mallen4896
