About me:

Bio... My first cut, "Pickup Truck", co-written with Joni Delaurier, was featured on country artist, Shane Yellowbird's freshman release, "Life Is Calling My Name". At the 2007 CCMA's the song was nominated for Single of the Year, Video of the Year and Joni and I were nominated for SOCAN Songwriters of the Year. The song ended up one of the top 10 Canadian country singles of 2007 and we received the SOCAN award for Country Music in 2008.

Completed my first CD, "Lost In The Metaphor", enjoying radio play nationwide. Have been busy writing and have a few cuts pending with several artists.... Check out more at:

    I always feel like having a cold beer after listening to Honky Tonk In Heaven! That can be tough right before bed lol. Forgive the paradox, but that kind of Country rocks! Hope your week is going great so far. Barry Brown, hit songwriter and member of the legendary Canadian group The Family Brown, is my guest on Wednesday night's show.

    Talk soon.

    Hey Troy! Man, Honky Tonk In Heaven, as I've said before, is such a great song. Listening to it as I type. Love that 'old school' sound. Hank Snow (my Dad's favorite), Patsy & Johnny Cash...sounds like a nice place to hang out! Next week on my show...3 of them...I'm interviewing JD Clarke, Misty Lee Olsen & Mr. Ronnie Milsap! Excited about each of them. Have a great weekend ahead. ("Rest in peace, you gotta be kiddin' me" - love that line from the song!)

    Hi Troy! Hope your week is going well. I had the opportunity to interview Victoria Banks earlier this evening. I've posted the interview at my website. Some great stories about her songwriting and her new CD.


    Have a great week.
