*****
He is a bona fide troubadour in the time-tested Texas tradition.
He sounds like sundown in Kerrville.
He sounds like everything you love about the Lone Star State.
Here are some of my songs that have been recorded by other artists. It is such a thrill to hear other interpretations of the work. Check out all these artists because they consistantly give us their dead level best. I am hosting two open mic venues north of Houston. One in beautiful Tomball every Tuesday and one in Spring every Wednesday evening. If you are seriously interested in having your songs heard get in touch. In addition to that I am involved in a nation-wide HOUSE CONCERT series. We are looking for songwriters with a PA who are willing to show up, set up, play two sets and pack up. These are guaranteed pay venues, exellent fan base-builders as well as an add-on to your tour. Professionals only please.
