Biography
I was a drug addict all my life.
In 2004 I was going to die, strung out on heroin, a liar, cheat and a thief. Then a wonderful thing - an intervention. I was given a chance for freedom, and I took it.
A three month stay in a Christ-based recovery program gave me hope and left me drug free for the first time in many years. As I write this in 2008, I am still clean.
My marriage has been restored, and my wife Teri and I have been married for 26 years now. My daughter Ashley thinks I'm cool (yes, I am cool.) I have been saved by grace and grace alone. Nothing I have done is worthy of this freedom.
Shortly after getting clean, I began writing and singing about what I know best - the pain of drug addiction, and the glory and joy of being set free through Christ.
I released my first cd, Take This Cup, in February 2007. My second cd, A Blessed Man, was released in February 2008. The third and latest cd, Dead Man Walkin', is the first with the whole band, Broken, playing.
I'm going to keep going.
I play as a soloist or with my band, Doug Hallock and BROKEN. We have played seven concerts to date in the Arizona State Prison system. We play at all kinds of events - churches, biker rallies, youth events, Celebrate Recovery kick-offs and meetings, homeless shelters, pretty much wherever anyone is brave enough to hear our message - Addiction, Salvation, Recovery.
