Growing up, music had lots of impact on my families life. My dad has been a drummer in a band for as long as I can remember and to this day he still plays at bars and private parties almost every weekend. When I was a teenager I had big dreams of becoming a lead singer in an iconic band and I practiced day and night. I never made my dreams come true but I've placed in a couple different karaoke contest, and I've performed on stage with my dads band numerous times. This may not be a big deal to some, but one time I sung on stage with my dads band at Cadillac Ranch in Lexington, Kentucky when they were opening for Montgomery Gentry. Thats a moment I'll never forget because for me, it felt as if I opened for one of my favorites when it comes to country music. And either way, I got to be part of that and it meant a lot to me. That was over 10 years ago and if I don't find my own place as a member of my own team of musicians soon, that dream will be history. I'm 36, and the music industry demands young people for the most part. I can write music pretty good but when I have a track that I'm listening to as I write, I'm somewhat of a musical genius. I guess thats my own opinion based on what I like. If you need a singer for your band, let me give it a shot and then you can from your own opinion of me. I'll try just about any genre with just about anyone that loves making music. Let me know.
