About Me

Since I am the only member of the band right now, this is about the way I like stuff...I like writing songs, planting stuff in the yard, cooking with the fresh herbs from my garden, combing the cats, I really love my crazy cats, feeding the birds, driving outta town, writing songs, a small sip of whiskey when it's cold, sitting by a fire, snorkeling for shells, reading before I go to sleep, saying my prayers, driving home after being outta town, reading the paper with a good cup of coffee on Sunday morning and writing songs. I love the early mornings and really like to hear the seagulls and osprey as they fly over the backyard. I like cold nights snuggled in close with my cowboy and the kitties keeping me warm. Life is good.

Band Members: Well, there's been a number of WILD PLAYERS and mis-gnomers over the years... SONNY EDWARDS - Lead Guitar, for MANY years!!! and Many Festivals!!! / Dennis "TRIX" Smith - Drums / Dusty Rhodes - Bass / Chuck F.- Bass / Steve. J. - Upright Bass / Steve Glickstein - Guitar / Colin Kenny -"RAIFORD STARKE"- Guitar / Bob Hestor-Harp / Jim Gross - Tenor Sax / Ron Litschauer - Guitar, Mandolin and Vocals / Dawn Dewitt - Stand Up Bass / Steve Boone - Bass / Dan O'Brian - Guitar. Lots of great DUO PARTNERS too... Marianne Flemming - (Cayman Island Queen!) / Raiford Starke / Lucinda Kidd Hackney - (OUTLAW SISTER!!) / Alberta Trefry Hill / Ron Toleos / and the wonderfilled and wacky HABANERO HONIES!! - Beth Judy, Cathy-Lee and Annie Wenz!! Of course I cannot forget the days as The ANNIE-HISTAMINE with the SEX RIFLES ENTOURAGE, starring Dave "Mighty" Fine, Carol Starr and assorted vagabond others. THE GIGMEISTERS, with Bill Jolly, Gene Kanaga. Dr. Ross Dogfood, Sistah Shake... that was a one gig band. HOT TROPIC duo with Ron Litschauer, THE SAND SPUR PICKERS with Joel Faircloth, Ray Haines and Ron L., many incarnations, many gigs. My friend and Florida road trip manager MARTIN Gauthier...so many guitars, so little space on the luggage rack! The Grand Road Manager of Austin, or as he called himself "Road Mangler and Handler" Gerald "Caveman" McClanahan. AUSTIN TEXAS, NASHVILLE, BOSTON, GRAND CAYMAN, PARADISE ISLAND, ... the really cool local coffee houses... most of which have evaporated into Starbucks ... then the most magical invitation to perform with the SYMPHONIC BAND OF THE PALM BEACHES... for the WILD WEST SHOW this past October...GEORGE SULLIVAN is the swingingest conductor this side of Texas... although he's conducted there too! Lots of adventures... lots of road trips... lots of songs. Of course it would be unjust for me not to mention another accomplice, CLYDE WALKER... it just wouldn't be a festival without CATHY LEE, CLYDE and JIM....Jim Beam that is. JOHN SHRIVER showed up after missing for 10 years and sat in on mandolin this year at SPRINGFEST with me...it was a blast!!More to be filled in as my absent mind fills in... if it does.... ;-)
