ABOUT

Southern soul. Outlaw edge. Built for the mic.
I’m a lead vocalist and songwriter from the southern US with a commanding baritone, grounded in bass and stretched into tenor for range and versatility. From classic outlaw country to modern Southern rock, I deliver textured, story-driven vocals with grit and control. Experienced frontman, stage and studio ready, and focused on what matters—performance that hits
