About Me

I am a 2nd generation musician with over 15 years of experience playing bass.
Born and raised in Huntsville, AL, I picked up the bass as a teenager and I'm influenced by the likes of Metallica's Cliff Burton, Van Halen's Michael Anthony, Led Zeppelin's John Paul Jones, and Black Sabbath's Geezer Butler.
I hooked up with singer/guitarist Bo Bice and drummer Shane Sexton when I was recruited to join a local rock band, Purge in 1994. We went on to have many successes and played countless high profile shows. I will never forget my years in the trenches with the guys from Purge. Those days helped me evolve into the musician I am today.
I moved to Helena in 1999, around the same time SugarMoney was formed by Bo along with some fellow musicians in Muscle Shoals, AL. Shane and I were later asked to join. We played all across Alabama and Tennessee. Bo soon moved to Helena and the three of us kept rockin'.
I now reside in Nashville and play bass for Bo Bice and SugarMoney. We are currently off tour; resting up and taking some time off.
If you get a chance to come see a Bo Bice and SugarMoney show, we won't disappoint. We deliver the music the way it's supposed to be, from the heart and soul."Live Music Matters"
