About Me

Layout by CoolChaser Background from flickr userHey Folks!!! Thanks for stopping by!I'm a pro bass player living in Nashville by way of Half Moon, AR. I've been here almost a year, and it's been the most exhilerating year of my life. I feel like I've grown exponentially as a musician, a person, and a man. I wouldn't trade anything in the world for my friends here. Jay, David, you guys are my bro's. I play bass about every day for different artists on Broadway, at venues like The Second Fiddle, The Stage, and Legends Corner, as well as up on printer's alley. I'm a blessed fella to get to do what I love for a living. I never work. I just play.Things are the best here, minus not having my folks and the comforts of home; this is my new home. But I'm working through that. There are no experiences I've taken part in that I would take back.The folks here are awesome, the musicians are the best in the world, things are only getting better each day. I've got some awesome stories already, like getting to meet Joe Don Rooney of Rascall Flatts, and to hang out with Darryl Worley at the Fiddle and Steel Guitar Bar. I've been priveledged enough to share the stage with some stars too, like Trent Tomlinson, John Michael Montgomery, Daryle Singletary, Jared Ashley, John Rich, Butter, Sarah Johns, n some other folks.I'm just a bass player/songwriter trying to make a living. Give me a shout if you need heavy bottom end, with a deep pocket.I recently got into writing little sayths. Here are a few. Enjoy the $$. - Do all that you can, not what you think you should. - Everybody will hurt you, but you gotta figure out who is worth the hurt. - Girls are like peanut M&M's. You can't have them when you're on a diet.THIS IS A VIDEO OF ME PLAYING AND SINGING AT DOUBLE DUECES IN MEMPHJIS, TN.playing in Memphis.
