Artist
I was born in Southeastern Ohio. At the age of 2 my parents took me to see one of their favorite singers, Toby Keith. At that time Toby was just getting started and they tell me I sang along to 'Should've Been a Cowboy'. I joined his fan club and went to his concerts . Another favorite of mine was Neil McCoy and I remember one time he signed autographs for hours after a concert, but we didn't get one as we were not in the Fan Club. As we were standing waiting for his bus to go by, he opened a window and said 'Give me something to sign.' Very nice. The list goes on to Colin Raye, whom my dad took me to see at Wheeling Jamboree; and now I sing at the Jamboree, which is truly an honor. My favorite female singer and friend is Donna Fargo. I would go watch her sing and would give her and Linda, her manager, a call whenever I was in Nashville. My first public appearance was at the Mike Ward Music Show at the Muskingum County Fair in Ohio. I sang Tim McGraw's 'It's Your Love'. My cousin Lynsey would sing there and so I was determined at age 5, 3 days before the fair, that I would learn that song and I did. That was the beginning of what has been the best times a kid could have..singing and traveling and meeting people. The cousin I mentioned is 6 years older than me and we started singing together with the name 'Cousins'. We started out at benefits to help people from flood relief to cancer, cystic fibrosis and lots more. Lynsey went to college but continues to sing and is a great
