About Me

To listen to my music is to know me. My songs are simple and sincere because that's who I am.So listen closely and you can hear the stories of the places I've been. Maybe you'll hear the boy sitting with his Grandma hearing Flatts and Scruggs for the first time. Maybe you'll hear the teenage punk bloodying up his guitar with The Scamps. Maybe you hear tires on a gravel road winding through the hills of Southeastern Ohio. Just know, when I'm singing, "I'm rollin' down this highway cryin' out to you," you're reading a chapter from my life. ____________________________________________________________ ____ You should create your own MySpace Layouts like me by using nUCLEArcENTURy .COM's MySpace Profile Editor !

Looking back.

Listening to my music is like looking back on my life. When I say, "I'm rollin' down this highway cryin' out to you," that's not something I made up; it happened that way. When you listen to "Dream of...
