Music has always saved me….singing it has always lifted my spirit, and writing it has given me a way of expression that I can't fully explain. I grew up singing in church, acting in countless musicals and local events. That led to college and then to Nashville.
As a singer I've lived between crooner and southern soul my entire career. I started as a demo singer for other songwriters trying to pitch their songs to artist with record label support while working as a songwriter myself. It served as a way to develop and grow. As a writer I've had an opportunity to chart my on path with different styles of music and a chance to work with many talented musicians. I've also written a few jingles....my favorite goes without saying....and I left it here for you in the tracks.
Even during the years of hosting our television show, I continued to write and record different styles of music. It led me to this point in my journey.
The album "Alabama Soul" is more than a song and title. It's a live show experience where the sounds of gospel, country, rhythm and blues, forge together to create the southern soul crooner sound I've always shared as a performer. There's only one place in my life that has influenced me so much and that's Muscle Shoals, Alabama. My home state provided that soulful unique sound, and it still does today. This sound has been taken to Nashville, L.A, New York, Memphis, Atlanta, and all over the world. Its undeniable.
In 2020 I began writing with my friend Mark Narmore ( singer/songwriter) in muscle shoals. We're already planning "Alabama Soul II" but for now the first "Alabama Soul" album will be available this year! 1st Release "Diddy" is available now on all platforms. This first group of songs is an overall taste of what will come next as long as we are blessed to keep doing it! Love you all and thank you for bringing us to your playlist! The second single release is coming soon...here's a little taste below. See you down the Road, Get Your Grill On, and Love Big!
