Backyard Rooster

Boy do I have a story. Att 10 I was diagnosed with Tourette Syndrome, ADD, and OCD, and 11 I was diagnosed with Thyroid, Thymus, Neck, Chest, and Lung Cancer, at 15 I was diagnosed with a brain tumor, had two surgies, and on the night of the second surgery I had not one, but two strokes leaving me paralyzed from the neck down on my right side.

Now, jump to today. I'm 24 and I'm singing and writing and composing music like no one has heard since the days of Hootie and the Gin Blossoms. I love 90's Rock. That short span between Grunge and the crap we call music today. While it's just me up on stage singing, I'm not strumming along on my acoustic/electric and calling it folk rock (that's not rock, that's a guy holding a guitar). I'm not so much of a musician on stage as I am a performer, or an entertainer. I have background music playing behind me which is just as it is on the CD and I sing along to that, kind of like Usher or Madonna does. My influences as far as my show goes are Keith Urban, Rascal Flatts, and Kenny Chesney. I always go down into the crowd and sing as the music is playing. I always come up on stage through the crowd at the beginning, and I always end the show with four acoustic songs that I play: I Melt, Raining On Sunday, which I get the crowd to sing along with me on, I'll Be, which I also have the crowd sing on, and the closer, Free Falling, which I always have the crowd sing the last chorus. This is one one-man-show you will never forget.
