Bio
I grew up in the 60's listening to all the folk groups as well as Beatles, Stones, Dylan, Who, Hendrix, Joplin, Allmans, etc. College at SE MO State U. left to work in radio; later I became a Christian. I returned to finish music degree. Began writing songs about my journey and singing wherever I could. I took a position as a part-time minister of music/youth. I finished college and went to work full time in a church for two years. Returned to radio and continued writing and making tape demos of my songs, sending some to gospel groups like the Imperials. I married and a few years later got my first single-song publishing deals with SBC Music Dept. Had two kids in 1980's. I've continued writing and singing mostly original stuff. Began teaching school music to pay the bills and support my family. Just retired from that but still making music for folks. Besides my folk and gospel stuff, I've written many songs for school performance, including a self-published musical-drama "Dare to Live", encouraging kids to stay off drugs. MO State Teachers Association requested "We Teach the Children" for a promotional video. I record my better solo songs, some heard here, and more recent ones to come soon.
