  • Bio

    .............. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. * ...... From 80's Heavy Metal guitarist, to a Southern Gospel singer/musician thanks to the Lord Jesus Christ. I started out playing guitar at the age of 14 and played lead guitar in several 80's metal bands including CUTTHROAT, MANIAC, and ROXX. Although I had made a profession of faith at a young age, it wasn't until after my wild teenage years, actually when I turned 30 that I was convicted by the Holy Spirit and born again. This new chapter in my life, that of Southern Gospel/ Bluegrass music actually started as a gift to my mother. She enjoyed hearing me sing and play gospel songs, so I made her a tape full of songs which she played every day and it grew from there. I also began singing other places including my home church, Sardis Baptist Church in Gainesville Georgia. I had a lot of people come to me and say I should make a CD and tell me how much of a blessing they recieved from my singing, so I started recording my first CD "Thankful" Mother's day 2005, which was the first Mother's Day without my mother, she passed away on June 23, 2004. The CD was released on June 23, 2005 and dedicated to my mom, Levartha Veal. It has been favorably recieved and I have had many people tell me what a blessing it has been to them. As long as I can be a blessing to someone through my singing and glorify God that is my only goal in this ministry. The riches I have recieved from hearing one person tell me of the positive impact a song has had on them is worth more than any money or fame I could ever recieve. It's all for Gods glory and praise! Truly, if not for the Lord Jesus Christ I would be nothing and he deserves all the credit for anything accomplished through my music. For without him I can do nothing!

    ..The Inspirations,Old Paths Quartet,Doyle lawson,Amos Stover, Roger Fortner. Every Saturday night before bed growing up, we would listen to the Grand Ole Opry on the radio so all those on the Opry in the late 60's to mid 70's were an influence on my music as were those appearing on the Gospel Singing Jubilee on Sunday Morning during that same time period.
