Artist Biography
In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. Mother at the little green piano, Dad singing of a home in the sky. Even now I can hear the echoes of their harmony, it lives in me as surely as my blood and bones, and I guess I'll die with the buzz of their intermingled voices ringing in my ears.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? James Taylor, The Essential James Taylor Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, VH1 Storytellers: Johnny Cash & Willie Nelson (Live) Randy Travis, I Told You So: The Ultimate Hits of Randy Travis I've had the VH1 Johnny and Willie on repeat for weeks, I love it much more than I should. The James Taylor album was a revelation, as I discovered it just as I started playing guitar and writing. And Randy Travis is my favorite singer of all time.
Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Upshur County” This song is about my childhood, about my roots, about my family. Sometimes songs are about the abstract or about some imaginary third person. This one is about me, about my Nanny and Papaw, my Daddy and Mama, and about the place we grew up.
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? I forgot the lyrics to a Bryan Adams song while singing along with a karaoke tape, performing at their wedding in the late 90s. It was a total train wreck, and the marriage was annulled.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? I'd like to play at Luckenbach, at Billy Bob's, the Ryman, and the Grand Ole Opry.
