12 years in Nashville and still trying to get that breakthrough hit.
Very honored and excited to be one of the three finalist in this year's Six-Pack. Please check out the Youtube lyric video for my song "Different," and share the video with your friends who might like it, or, even better, anyone who might hate it. ;-) A little controversy would be good for the song right about now. ;-)
