Movies
Television
I don't care for reality shows at all. When I watch TV, I like to be made to forget about reality for the time being and be entertained. I like shows such as "Numbers", "Las Vegas", "The Unit" and I especially like "Boston Legal" for its humor and wit.
Books
I don't read a lot but if I do, I enjoy reading about other musicians and their struggles in the music industry.
Heroes
My mother who passed away 2 years ago. She was first cousins with Loretta Lynn and as a child in Van Lear Kentucky they were friends and attended school together. Her life was pretty much the same as Loretta's and she was the driving force behind my music career. She was the first person to place a guitar in my hands at the age of 8, and a Loretta Lynn concert was the first concert I ever attended. Whenever I finished writing a new song, she was the first person outside of Donna my wife, to listen to it.

About me: I am a singer, songwriter & musician from Jackson Michigan. I have been involved in music since my teenage years. Being a songwriter, I love any type of music that shows talent and love meeting new songwriters. I just finished my NEW CD titled "Still Alive and Pickin". It has a total of (12) original songs and feature (14) local musicians who offered their talent. You can purchase your copy for only $10.00 at my website http://www.ronhyden.com. I currently have (4) songs published with Alley Roads Music of Nashville TN and am a member of BMI. I have recorded a session in Nashville of (4) of my originals at LSI Studios and released on the independent label, Castle Records. I really enjoyed meeting and working with the same musicians that play the sessions for Garth Brooks, Alan Jackson, Alabama and such. It was a real honor having them play on my session. Along with my wife Donna, we wrote, produced and hosted a live family show, called " A Night of Country" at the Michigan Theatre in Jackson Michigan for several years. I played and toured with my band "Sidewinder" for several years, but have spent the past few working on my orginal songs. I am second cousins with Loretta Lynn and performed at her ranch several times. Please visit my website at: http://www.ronhyden.com

Who I'd like to meet: I love meeting songwriters, musicians and anyone involved in creating music. I also love meeting the fans who enjoy my music. I have met so many who have touched my life in ways that are hard to imagine. I thank everyone who has supported me and my music and for your kind words over the years.
