In 1984, Troy was a Star Seach hopeful and worked hard on his stage presentation Troy spent his time with vocal coach Christine Vanderleast and in his schools choir often performing solos in competition. In 1988 he was accepted in the prestigious Los Angeles School of the Arts. While living in Los Angeles, he played the Hollywood Circuit for years with his Blues/Rock Band "Squeeze Bye." The band generated a large following with hits such as Renegade Son, Red, Lost and Alone Again. Plauged by Indecision.

His Grandfather and Grandmother Claude and Lois St' Jean later went on to become the editors of Country Music Magizine in Canada. They had a Top Ten hit entitled "What Is a Stompin Board." Besides his grandparents, some of Troy's other musical influences include His Jr. High Vocal Coach and the person responsible for giving him the tools to corrctly use his talent Christine Vanderleest, Garth Brooks (his favorite entertainer and a man he had the privledge of singing for at Paramount Pictures in Hollywood) Lynard Skynard, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Ray Charles, (Little Feat, First Concert at age 5), Willie Nelson, Kenny Rogers, Lionel Ritchie, Charlie Daniels, Hank Williams (Senior and Junior), Waylon Jennings, and George Strait, among many others.

"Country Music Review"
"It's not enough to just sing well, the fans have to feel the story your telling. There's nothing better than looking out on a sea of faces and seeing them get it. I sing because I love to communicate to people. If my songs can help someone rekindle a memory of a lost romance or be a crutch for someone in a difficult time or just give someone a laugh than I have succeded in my goal."
"Stay true to the music and the music will stay true to you."
