Years. I done all the Smoky bars. I've played all around ARK Texas Oklahoma Missouri Memphis bill St blue's and music festival that's just half of the places I've played. My great great grandpa played a banjo for the old chuck wagon gang and has appeared on Hehaw. I have two cousins that play in a band Adam Durits lead vocalist for the counting Crows and Matt malley bass guitarist and back up vocalist for the counting Crows. And I the last band I played with was another band that my dad had started then we had a female singer so we called our selfs Shannon bailey and the Empty Pockets band cause we went from almost making a living and making good money on the weekends to hardly nothing. And as still whiskey we wrote several songs. Here is a few to name. 100 mph, hands and knees , the wind, concrete cowboy, for ever and a day, a table for two. We also recorded our songs and sold our CDs we had hats shirt and a few other things to as well.
