  • Bio

    .. .. ..Well, here it is...... .. I grew up in north Louisiana, Monroe to be exact. I've been involved in music since a wee little boy thanks to my wonderful music loving parents, who exposed me to a vast array of music- This being your finest of vocal quartets like the Statler Brothers or the pickin's of the one and only Chet Atkins. But seriously, thanks to my older brother I was given the gift of knowing exactly who Gene Simmons was.. before the thought of reality shows like Family Jewels (which is pretty funny) and the great Lynyrd Skynyrd and all your favorite rock/blues/soul/ etc, etc, music. .. I played saxophone in school and even made it my major in college, while at the same time, spending my nights and weekends playing bass and guitar in various bar bands. .. .. I moved to Nashville in 2001, leaving my hometown to pursue my passion of playing/writing/recording. I've certainly been fortunate since my move and have played with several recording artists since my move such as: Steve Wariner, Tracy Byrd, Travis Tritt, James Burton, The Box Tops, Tanya Tucker and Rhett Akins to name a few. In 2005 I signed a record deal with Sony Nashville for my band Stone. We recorded a record only to be let go later from our contract as a result of their corporate merger with BMG that significantly downsized their artist roster as well as their employees... .. I'm currently playing with Country Music Hall of Famer, Steve Wariner. I've been able to play on some great independent records and great songwriters' demo recordings, which is my true passion, recording. I'm also playing with Capital Records artist, Jedd Hughes, and my bands, The Levees and Swamp Rat. We are currently wrapping up our record in my studio, Studio on the Ridge, for Swamp Rat. .. .. The studio is also available for record projects, demos, overdubs and any mixing/editing needs. .. www.studioontheridge.com .. ..
