About Me

I'm a hard working Singer/Songwriter from Oxford, Mississippi. I write music about some of the things I've seen and experienced. I enjoy a good fiction too, though and also write period pieces from a historical perspective. I create fact based characters from a specific event or time and use actual dates and places. I play alone most of the time, but I do have a band that gets together once in a blue moon. It's more like a group of musicians that sit in with each other for a night every now and again. We call ourselves The Grey Papes. Below are some things that have been written about us.
"The Grey Papes are a periodical gathering of minds and musicians. They're raw and organic and embody all that's good about original music given the Hollywood pop machine and a fickle public's short attention span. With a different cast of quality musicians every time, you never know what to expect from The Grey Papes. Each show is different and every 'incarnation' presents an opportunity to hear original music by various Mississippi artists. They have a lot of fun and put on a fantastic show. Their material is an array of styles and subjects ranging from Folk to Reggae to Bluegrass and Rock n Roll and back again. If you can catch The Grey Papes, you're in for a real treat, but good luck finding them. They only appear every now and then."
- Graciously written about us by Basil Womack.
Next are some words that have been used to describe us: Fun. Energy. Renegade. Fire. Spiritual. Tenacious. Mississippi. Feel-Good. Organic. Raw. Defiant. Traditional. Laughing. Elemental. Romance. Free. Barefoot. Heartfelt. Strength. Passion. Crazy. Imagination. Enlightenmemt. Vision. Love.
