Currently I am on the road having a blast with the "hick-hop" man himself...Colt Ford! (CMT video "No Trash In My Trailor") His brand of country style "rap" is drawing crowds and making a statement on the ever changing Nashville music industry. If you haven't checked him out, I urge you too. The music is fun, clever, and frankly his show is a party!!! Keep an ear out. You'll be hearing more from this guy and hopefully me too! Listen for his new "remix" of the Montgomery Gentry song "Roll With Me".
I am also staying busy doing sessions and playing around town. I am still involved with the 7 piece powerhouse southern rock band "Smokey Lonesome", husband and wife duo Thompson Square, new comer's from San Diego "Married By Elvis", as well as the "rock god Crazy Bitches" (their words not mine) Stacie Collins and Tonya Watts. I am also proud to say that I'm involved with my dear friends from WI.."Out Of Ether". There are great things happening there with our song "Don't Let Go" which I co-produced and someone very close to me performed. The song has been involved with the Global Campaign against cancer!!! Please check it out! Better yet....Check all of them out in my top friends. Thanks for stopping by! Hope to see you on the road!
