HUNTING A DREAM

I am a late bloomer, but better late than never... My first album Full House was released in 2004. In the beginning of the eighties I was more of a punkrocker than anything else. Later I was turned on to bands like Metallica,Guns'n'roses, Motörhead, Girlschool and The Ramones. So I'm an old rocker gone country. I did lots of demoes and tried to land a deal, never got it whatsoever, but never really gave up the dream of singing and making music. In the beginning of the nineties I finally discovered the beauty of country music and been a huge fan since then. Country music has a lot of similarities to Rock&Roll. Just think of The outlaw country, Hank Williams Jr, Billy Don Burns, Johnny Paycheck amongst others.
