Stone White

Stone has been lead singer of several bands, playing a variety of music from country, blues, old R&B, classics and southern rock; this has given him an opportunity to utilize a variety of vocal styles. This variety blended over to his songwriting, creating Stone’s unique country sound. Prompting a reviewer for the Nashville Scene newspaper to write about his first independent album “Someday, Someway” is an eclectic blend of southern rock, country blues and pop with a little something for everyone.” That year the CD “Someday, Someway" with all songs written by Stone, was voted best independent album in the Scene’s readers poll. Stone also placed third in the poll (behind Vince Gill and Garth Brooks) as best male artist; and third (behind Vince Gill and Pat Green) as best songwriter. Stone spent years touring and performing with different bands throughout the southern US and Europe performing covers and original music.



Over the years, Stone has also acted in numerous films, shorts, commercials and videos. He then turn his attention to writing and directing for film, starting with a documentary entitled “Overcoming Grief”and the short film “Choices” for the Jason Foundation (a teen-age suicide prevention group), distributed throughout the world.

Lyrics from the song "My Friend"

by Stone White



Ever since I was a child

And many times since then

You have been one in my life

That I have called friend



Cause we have laughed

And we have learned

And we have often cried

But through the good and the bad

You were always by my side

I’m so proud to call you my friend



Time and change it often seems

Has torn us apart

But no matter how far away

You are always near my heart



Cause we have laughed

And we have learned

And we have often cried

But through the good and the bad

You were always by my side

I’m so proud to call you my friend



When I need a helping hand

On you I can depend

If I searched the whole wide world

I’d never find a better friend



And I hope when you think of me

And the times we shared

That you’ll know how much I cared

And be glad I was there



Cause we have laughed

And we have learned

And we have often cried

But through the good and the bad

You were always by my side

I’m so proud to call you my friend

Yes, I’m so proud to call you. my friend
