Just me (acoustic and electric guitar, vocals, and keyboard).
I am "cornfused." I'm not a "band," I'm a solo artist . . .
and yet occasionally I'll try to add someone as a friend
and I can't because they "don't accept friend requests from
bands"! Ugh. What's the deal!? If you'd like to contact me about
doing your original songs at my Monday night WRITERS NIGHT (at the Maxwell House Hotel); or my Tuesday night WRITERS NIGHT (at Norm's River Road House or at Matty's Alley in E. Nashville) my e-mail is tytunes@comcast.net. You can see photos I've taken of some of the writers I've worked with here:
Glenn Steele; Frank Sinatra; Dean Martin; W.C. Fields; the 60's; television and movie westerns; The Beatles; Peter, Paul, and Mary; Bob Dylan; Joan Baez; Neil Young; Van Morrison; Gordon Lightfoot; Pete Seeger; Hank Williams; Woody and Arlo Guthrie; John Hartford; Doc Watson; The Byrds; David Crosby; CSNY; Leonard Cohen; Haggard; Cash; Willie; Waylon; Townes; Guy Clark; John Prine; Paul Sanford; Terry Pinnegar; Keith Harden; John Pennell; Tony Lane; David C. Lee and various other Nashville songwriters that I've had the pleasure to hear and/or meet and/or know; William Butler Yeats; God's grace; love; and incredibly rich, diverse, and awesome beauty . . . which is on display all around and about us . . . all of the time.
Maybe Lightfoot meets Leonard Cohen meets Van Zandt? You tell me . . . I'm a little bit all over the place. You can buy CDs from me at live performances and also from "CD Baby" and Barnes & Noble Books at the Opry Mills Mall:

Howdy . . . please check my BLOG for more details about some of my songs.... I'm a late bloomer . . . I deeply regret not moving here much sooner . . . however, I did move to Nashville in late November ’07 to pursue writing/performing full-time. I can be seen/heard around town at various Singer/Songwriter venues. . . . . . I am a member of the Songwriters Guild of America, the Folk Alliance, the International Bluegrass Music Association, the Americana Music Association, and also a member of ASCAP as a writer and publisher (Ty Tunes). . . . . . It's wonderful being part of a songwriting community here in Nashville!. . . . . I have two CDs for sale at CD Baby:
