Thank you to everyone who helped make 2021 the best year ever for getting my true sound created and exposed to the world.  Thanks to the great musicians in the Groove Pilots and Johnny Marie & the Lonesome Petunias for keeping the music fresh and always high quality!  

Thanks to my family and friends as well for keeping folk, country, swing, and gospel music alive and well.   I was very honored to lead the SHOW @ the Tractor & Steam Engine show in Booneville. With cousin Roy Stevens Jr, Dan Cahone, David, Elaine, Jim and our singers Bill and Pat.   Great show guys!   

Whether I'm practicing new music, working recording or jamming at the local bars, this is the one place you can always go to know the latest with me and my music, so check back often — you never know when something fun is going to pop up here for your music enjoyment!

Originally from Sedalia MO with deep roots in Warsaw MO I now reside in Raytown in the Kansas City area and play with several musical groups as well as solo. 

 I use to love to hear the organ music at church and learned to sing for my family at a young age.  My Mother played the piano and my Uncle Leo Galloway was an excellent jazz musician in the 50's.   My Father was born with a hearing defect and has always read peoples faces and body language.  He can't hear the music but he feels it and has always been able to dance a pretty mean jig.   I believe he is the one I picked up my talent for rhythm and reading people.  I formed a 3 piece band in the late 60's with Glen Spencer and Dr. Richard McDonald.  We have written hundreds of songs over the years and still get together once or twice a year to write and perform.  Jars of Dark is a CD we released
