About Me

By the age of 14, I taught myself to play the guitar and by the age of 16, I was writing songs. I grew up listening to Johnny Cash, Johnny Paycheck, Merle Haggard, Willie Nelson, Hank Williams, Hank Williams, Jr. & Waylon Jennings. All these artists seem to dig deep and write about triumphs in their lives and weren't afraid to write about the turmoil either.Over the years I have played in numerous bars and at festivals in and around South Carolina. At The Bowery in Myrtle Beach, SC, I was a special guest for a week. I performed with the Bud Moffet Band at Rascals, in Augusta, GA while opening for Tracy Lawrence. At Tumbleweeds in Anderson, SC, I sang on stage with David Allan Coe. I was asked to perform my signature song, "The Saluda County Tractor Pull" at the pull. During the pull, Kentucky Filmmakers were following the American Puller Association Circuit, completing a documentary in the making.I continuously write songs based on the life experiences of myself, family and friends. What makes my band unique? The band consists of myself and my drummer, Cyndi. Although we are a two person band, we perform! We have yet to play a bar or event and not pack the house. In October, 2006, I returned home from a tour in Iraq and it feels really good to get back to performing. I also received a new perspective while I was gone. Life is what you make it and don't waste a minute! I love to entertain and share my life through music. It's in my blood!http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii282/124sniper/Pre vo014dark.jpghttp://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fusea ction=viewImage&friendID=407603719&albumID=388482&am p;imageID=1552173
