AJ Goodvin

MY SPACE BIOHey Fellow FriendsHere is my short version of my career. I began singing and at the age of 3, but I only started taking it seriously around 12, when I stopped growing and my dreams of being a Hockey player were fading rapidly. After I wrote my first song I remember thinking, This is really where it' at! My first love was and is country music, thanks to campfires and guitars, and a great family in the Goodvin’s!In 2004 I made my first EP that got some airplay in Canada. I did it with Chris Rolan (Rick Tippe) in BC, the single off it was called “Dream and Write A Book.” That then led me to, putting my own band together and starting touring around Alberta, BC and Saskatchewan. We really had a buzz going for a while. Being that a Band need material to play, I was able to write some songs that people were really starting to dig, and I always loved to write em.Somewhere in the middle of all of that, I met my mentour Miles Wilkinson. Just by chance he caught my little acoustic set with my bass player at the time, when he was supposed to catch somebody else. Funny how that works. He wanted to do something with the band, recording wise. I then took the liberty of saying, I wanted to go to Nashville and do some writing and recording, and Just like that it became reality.Through the years I have been lucky to be a part of the following. I have been on National Television in Canada with the following shows.THE ROAD TO NASHVILLE STAR 3, CMT’S REALITY SHOW “PLUCKED” I have shared stages with some great artistsTRACY BYRD, DARRYL WORLEY, ADAM GREGORY, MICHELLE WRIGHT, JOHNNY REID, EMERSON DRIVE, CAROLYN DAWN JOHNSON, And Many moreI have also been very blessed over the years to write with some killer people.
