Mostly acoustic folk stuff. Some country and country folk.
I've been playing guitar and singing since I was 12. I write a lot of tunes, and do music videos.
The CD's are available on CDbaby and the price is $9.00 for the CD, and three bucks for the download. If you're tight on cash these days, just let me know and I will send you a CD for free.

I like subscribers, but I try and avoid the friends part. I get so many requests from a lot of people who have never even watched my videos or even subscribed. I appreciate the fact that they invite me, but I was just getting too many videos sent every day. I don't mind them once in a while, but at one point, I let it go too long and had to clear out almost 9,000 of them. (it took a while) So, I eliminated a lot of friends from my list in order to cut them down. Sorry I'm such a lazy S.O.B. I don't send out videos, and I do have my Youtube home screen set to show me new videos from subscribers so I pretty much know when there is a new one up. If I miss them, I'm sorry, and if I don't always comment, I'm sorry about that too. I ALWAYS try and rate. I'm always amazed how there are a lot of people who will take the time to comment, but don't rate which is just one little click of the mouse.
I always appreciate the kind comments from everyone and I know some of the songs don't deserve the praise they get.
For those who leave the really mean comments, I will delete them and then block you. If it is kind constructive critisism, that's one thing, or even a suggestion, I'm fine with that. But the ones I delete are usually very mean spirited and when I check to see who it is, they are for the most part, anonymous, and they are NEVER musicians. The singers and songwriters I've met here on Youtube are always the nicest people in the world with very big hearts, and I don't deserve to be among them, but I'm glad I am.
