Texas native, lawyer-turned-musician, describes his music as ‘a blend of soulful-country-blues-rock-and folk’. Solid guitar player, strong vocals, good backing band. Features Augie Meyers on #4. Solid stuff. No FCC’s.

2. *(4:55) Mid. Drumsticks, cymbal strikes, heavy drums, mean crunchy gtr.
3. (2:59) Mid. Classic gtr riff, steady beat, backing vcls.
4. *(3:40) Mid. Augie Meyers song w/ him on piano. Upbeat & rockin’.
5. *(4:36) Slow / Mid. Late-night jazzy blues w/ killer bass, hi-hat, piano.
6. *(3:56) Mid. Full band, big drums, classic blues vibe.
7. (3:30) Mid. Barroom vibe w/ mean gtr, organ.
