.. Worked as a keyboardist with a lot of acts over the years, including singer-songwriter, Wendy Waldman, on the Dan Fogelberg's Exile tour and with other artists such as Percy Sledge (of When A Man Loves a Woman fame), Jim Stafford, Travis Wammack, The Midnighters, Rich Grissom, Bill Brandon, Sweet Loraine and the Grammy-award winning, country group, Shenandoah. ...Currently filling that position.
_ Drive about 45 minutes south of Nashville.. in the country and you'll find me with my wife, Donna... along with the cows and the chickens, deer and wild turkey.
God has richly blessed me to be able to do what I truly love ..write and play music. A man who loves his work, never has to find a job.
I want to give a huge thanks to Randy Fuchs and his entire staff at Artist Relations. www.artistrelations.com Randy has been incredibly helpful to me over the past several years when it comes to advice, gear info and endorsements. His broad band of expertise in the music industry covers everything from engineering, studio owner, professional musician, to the ultimate sales and marketing guru for the biggest gear manufacturers in the world. His level of professionalism, persistence and the personal attention he gives, never ceases to amaze me. Randy and his staff know how to bring talented people together from all walks of the music industry in a unique way. Randy Fuchs will always be the go to guy and a permanent part of my network of friends.
I would also like to thank: Native Instruments, Muse Research, Freedom Stands, Ultrasone, Sonoma Wireworks and Overloud for their generosity.
..Would also like to say thanks and a big hello to all my friends down in North Alabama..you know who you are!
