* Writer for TNN's Fandango game show in Nashville, TN
* Writer for WSM radio's "Waking Crew" hosted by Charlie Chase
* I've had the honor of working with many of country music's legends throughout my career. I've been opening act and/or backup band for the following stars: George Hamilton IV, Bobby G. Rice, Red Sovine, Faron Young, Tex Ritter, David Houston, Hank Snow, Jean Shepard, Jack Greene, Ernie Ashworth, Dave Dudley, David Allen Coe, Penny DeHaven, Jeannie Seely and soon Bobby Bare.
* Awards for "Local Country Artist of the Year"
* Voted "Madison's Favorite Country Band"

I'm a BMI songwriter, singer and Nashville recording artist. Several of my original songs: "Memories Wrapped in Songs", "All Over Again", "Chasing Memories", "(Big Brother Bill's) Rusty Old '49 Ford", "When The Cowboys Are Gone", "I'm Beholdin' to Him" and others have become favorites of many of my fans.
