Bio:

New "Goin' to the Country" CD RELEASED!

This is my third CD. I love both Country and Blues, so this is a combo of both those styles I like. I call the style of music I do “Porch Music”, because it is what you play on the porch with your friends I hope you will enjoy listening to these songs as much as I do playing them for ya.

"Reminds me of those early Rolling Stones albums~!"
