He’s a guitar pickin’, Pool Shootin’, Poker Playin , Ramblin’, Gamblin’ Man & he’s been doin’ it ever since he was a little boy.
Born the son of the legendary “Guitar Bobby” aka “ Tucson Bobby the Arizona Playboy”.
From the age of 9 years old, Slim accompanied “Guitar Bobby”, on an endless tour of Honky Tonks & Gin Mills . They’d roll in, play a few songs, pass the hat and get in an old Ford & get on to the next joint, to do it all over again.
By the age of 21, Slim is quoted as saying “ I’ve been in more bars than anyone on this planet” “I’ve had the perfect childhood.” Somewhere along the trail Slim became Poker Pro, playin’ the top games in the card casinos of California & Las Vegas.
Slim has been livin’ “The Honky Tonk Life” a long, long time.
His music reflects the broad scope of his experience. It’s “Country With A Twist”!
Slim says his philosophy has been, “If it ain’t broke…..Break it!!”…Check out his debut CD “Album of the Year” on Broken Records.

CountryHome Forum, http://groups.myspace.com/CountryHomeMagazine , is one of the biggest Forum for country music in Europe and part of CountryHome, www.countryhome.de , Germany's Premier Online Country Music Magazine.
CountryHome Forum have more than 5,800 members. Each news you submit to CountryHome Forum will released to my weekly Newsletter with more than 60,000 readers.
Please submit your artist news and events to CountryHome Forum to help your artists to get well known better in Europe. If you do not have the time to submit your artist news and events by yourself, please send it me to: Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de and I will submit them by myself to CountryHome Forum.
I know that many artists from North America don't have their music videos uploaded to German video websites. The most popular websites are MyVideo.de and ClipFish.de. That means your European audience does not have the chance to find them.
I understand that most of you don't speak German and are not able to upload videos because of the language barrier. If you would like me to upload your videos to the German video websites, please let me know.
Thanks
Christian

Hey Sunset Slim, great to see you and Blackie at the conference center in Nashville. Thanks for the picts and autograph. Warm regards, your friend and fan, Bruce
Awsome name and logo! Totally unforgetable. I'm a writer looking for that perfect artist to make my songs shine. If you are looking for material or know someone who would be a good fit let me know.
Thank you and likewise! I really enjoy your songwriting. You've definitely got a talent (especially for lyrics). I'm trying really hard to step up my game for my next CD which I hope to record in August. What do you do? A song at a time? Thanks for the comment :)
