| Well what can I say? The bug hit me early...staying up late watching all those late night rock shows. I must have been the one practicing while all the others were doing homework. Anyway what you wish can come true...I ended up touring in a rock band travelling the country in an old school bus (yes just like on tv). Later fortunately, we graduated to the hotel circuit (finally nice digs and food). Went on to back up former Dave & Sugar / Marty Stuart alumni Melissa Pruitt with my buddy Rex Mauney on keys who is now with Toby Keith. Now days I can be found rocking the stages with Kraig Parker (vegas style show) and playing around Texas in my blues combo The SwampKings. It's never a dull moment whether playing in the US of A or Europe, I have been doing this for 35 years and dreaming about it longer. God blessed me with the ability to interpret songs and lend my creative mojo to them in a fasionable way which keeps people calling me back. So, when I'm in town you can find me spankin' the plank at Glenview church on Sunday mornings....come on down, the house is a rockin'! A confirmed strat and tele player, I prefer a nice tube head like my old Boogie and a small cabinet...that way if the joint is burning down I can just grab everything with two hands and skeedaddle! I have a few select pedals I throw in front of the amp...nothing elaborate just enough to keep the tone and sounds flexible to cover the rock, blues and country licks me and the band churn out. I am available for full or part time work on or off the road, I also offer part tracking through my studio "The TuneLab" via a file exchange service. |
