   About J.R. Byrd
Layout Provided By FreeCodeSource.com - Myspace Layouts I guess I'm as Texan as I am anything else, seeing as I've inhabited Denton, TX for seven years now. In that time I've aquired a worthless Jazz Studies degree, a fine saxophone goddess of a wife and two completely dependent dogs which you will find on the cover of my latest CD, "Step Into the Shade". I guess I'm most at peace when I'm on stage in front of a crowd of eager ears. I will continue to focus on writing/recording/producing what I believe to be high quality songs. That's all for now.
album coverJ.R. BYRD: Step Into the Shade

Modern Rock at it's finest; J.R. Byrd has fused the contemporary sounds of "John Mayer" with the slick production values of "Steely Dan".

Buy the CD
album coverBY STARLIGHT: A Portrait of Heartaches and Never Agains

Very educated, distinguished, jazz influenced, rock sounds that portray many elements of yesterday and today
