I'm Mary, Melissa and Jamie's Daddy. I'm Davis Michael and David Fulton's Grandaddy. I'm George and Laurrie's son. I'm a songwriter, singer and guitar player. I'm a decent card player and a better fisherman. I like warm weather, drop top Mercedes Benz cars, Harley Davidson and custom Bikes, American muscle cars and classic cars, Gibson guitars, any old guitar, Fender and Marshall amps, and bass fishing. I am happiest when a good song is finished. I play in a band called Skinny Molly with some good friends of mine. We play in the States and Europe. You can see my band at www.skinnymollyrocks.com or at www.myspace.com/skinnymolly. I have also recently joined the legendary southern rock band Blackfoot. Having a great time playing with them. I have a bunch of good friends in the States and in other countries. I mighta oughta shoulda been a lawyer, and my favorite TV shows are law related. "Law and Order" and the Andy Griffith Show. I've probably learned more from the latter. I probably should have played piano instead of guitar. I love Larosa's Pizza and Skyline Chilli. Some days I don't like to work out all that much but I do it anyway. I lose my keys and guitar picks at least once a day. Sunglasses too. I've gotten better about not losing my cell phone.
My home is in the sticks in Tennessee. Love it there. I have a recording studio next to my house where the band rehearses(!) and records.
I also live on the road half the time, or in Florida. I guess I'm half gypsy.
I have had the good fortune of playing with some great musicians, famous and not so famous. I also figured out you can be both at the same time.
Tennesse is home, but I am on the road a LOT. .
Oh, yeah, almost forgot. I used to play guitar with Lynyrd Skynyrd.
You can read my "official" bio at www.skinnymollyrocks.com
but the above is a short (?!)of who I am. The music on my site here is stuff that's a mix of what I have done over the years; my old band Brave New South, my acoustic band, Horsetraders, and my work with Skinny Molly.
