Writing that one big song...........

I grew up listening to country radio. Although I have influences by Brian Wilson (Beach Boys) and AC/DC; my heart always remained with Country Music (Tradional, New, and some Bluegrass).  Mostly my passion is writing songs. I enjoy performing live; but I also like assisting with other bands (learning, learning and learning). I have fun with recording when I can and I am also be a bit of a gear-head playing around with equipment. I have fun networking with many artists and I am always finding ways to improve my knowledge of the biz. My favourite artists are Garth Brooks, George Jones, Aaron Lines, Dywight Yokam, John Prine, Alan Jackson, Jason Blaine, Darren Norwood, Merle Haggard, Kenney Chesney, Rodney Adkins, Brad Paisley, Darren Hancock, Jef Leeson, Jason McCoy, and George Strait. I am a huge fan of instumental artisits/ studio musicians as well like: Brent Mason (guitarist), Jason Barry (guitarist), Steve Piticco (guitarist), Steve Peitri (guitarist), Dan Corak (Drums), and Jef Leeson (Bass). Songwriters: Jamie Johnson, John Rich, Jeff Callery, Jim McBride, Keith Stegall and Brad Paisley.
