Man this year is already in high gear! Besides playing a ton of shows myself, I've somehow found myself playing guitar in a few different groups and with a few different artists. One of these groups is Dos Loco with Lillian Axe frontman Brian Jones. We are doing this group as a duo and a full band and it should satisfy all of your ROCk needs. I'm also in a soon to be names raggae group as well as playing duo shows with Shaun Patterson, Rodney Moore, Erin Callie and Brighton Patrice. Gonna be a fun summer to say the least. At the present I am working with my go to artists Ryan Lewis to put the art together for my new e.p. "She Got Me" that I hope to have out in Mar/Apr. Top all of that off with using every free moment to work on the new full length album and lets just say my dance card this year is full! Tons of shows on the way so I hope to see all of you out there! 

Take care

Its been a long crazy, exciting, tiring and unimaginable year! It was the busiest year Ive had in music, as I started the year touring behind my first C.D. "13 Years". At the time I was still selling phones for a day job and juggling the lack of sleep associated with playing all over the southeast 5-6 to sometimes 7 strait nights in a row. This year finally found my music career getting so busy that my "hobbie" became my job. I played over 300 shows, spanning many miles and playing shows in Mobile, Al, Gulfshores Al, Pensacola, Fl, Memphis, Tn, Nashville, Tn, Raleigh, Nc and just about every town in Mississippi. In August I did a showcase in Nashville and have been driving back and forth writing songs every since. In November we won a contest to open for Jake Owen and the Avett Bros in front of 35,000 people at Bulldog Bash. In December on my birthday I recorded a live in studio performance for the "Oxford Sessions" to be released as a e.p. this year and to air on the tv show of the same name later this year. That same night I recorded a live show at Hal n Mals in Jackson to also be released this year. 

I tell all of this not pat my back, but to reflect on the things done and let you all know that I'm greatful that you all have supported me and given me the opportunity to do what I love. Its because of you that this continues to go strong and I'm truly greatful. 2012 is going to be even crazier as I plan to release two e.p's a live album holding performances of Bulldog Bash and solo performances and my next studio album that I hope to have out by the end of the year. I also have about 5 side projects in the works. As the song says " aint no rest for the wicked"  I dont feel wicked but you get the idea. Cheers and we will see you soon!

See if we're playing in your neck of the woods and come on out!!!!!
