Shotgun Penny (2005-2007)

About Me

Pretty much it all started when Jason was recording some stuff and he thought it would be cool to have a violin in this one song. Well the only violin player he knew was his friend Steff from his home church Peoples Church, so she came over to Jasons barn and recorded that one song. It went really well, so the rest is history.
