ABOUt THis Modern Day Troubadour
I quit my day job in Sept. 1997 and embarked on the long and winding road of being a full-time performer who writes and records his own songs and performs all over North America and in Europe. My songs are of a rootsy Americana sort. As much as anything else, I'm coming from a country blues place, but even people on the streets in Mississippi generally don't know what country blues is anymore. That's alright, because people like it when they hear it!

“Okay. The album is called Blue Suitcase, and it's on a German label. It came out in '99 and it's wonderful. In terms of the playing, you can really get inside what he's doing, in terms of studying the moves. There's stuff that he does that nobody else does. ”
— David Wilcox, Singer-Songwriter
