WRIR Fundraiser Show

I had a swell time entertaining on the local Richmond airwaves! I got to sing some of my favorites, and the DJs were mighty good hosts. This was my first time in a very long time performing on WRIR in Richmond. I hadn't been on since 2005. I really have come a long way since then! They sure did make me feel at home. Here's a full audio clip of the show

This past weekend I entertained at Sneed's Nursery for their Fall Festival. The weather was kind of chilly and windy, but I had a great time. I always get my Christmas trees from them, and they always have a good selection it seems. I didn't get to travel as much this year as I did last year, but I figure its probably good to take a break and focus more on songwriting, tweaking my performance routines, and getting in better shape. I still have my YMCA membership and I keep up with strength training regimen. My goal is to get rid of this flab, so I can look fab!

Ned Hepburn: Meade Skelton’s ‘Hipsters Ruin Everything’ may be hipster anthem we’ve all been waiting for

This is a reprint of a now deceased article from Death and Taxes Blog printed June 20th, 2012 Meade Skelton’s ‘Hipsters Ruin Everything’ may be hipster anthem we’ve all been waiting for Meade Skelton is a guy from Virginia who hates Obama, hipsters, and untucking his shirt. He has a blog, and spends most of the day blogging about how much he wants to sing, how much he hates Obama, how much he dislikes drums, and detailing his weight loss. He also uploads a lot of his songs to YouTube. Now, the cynic in me wants to simply write him off as a guy in a small town with a keyboard (which he names “Bessie,” by the way) – but to be honest, there’s something about him that screams “outsider art” moreso than most any other random YouTube / blog find. He comes across like the Daniel Johnston of keyboard-based coffee shop country – a description that no doubt will set his rivaled hipsters ears on fire. For all the vast amount of information that the internet has to offer, its rare to ...

New Single Release: The Courage Ride

I released a new singled called "The Courage Ride". Available now through Bandcamp The Courage Ride-Bandcamp Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to Everyone! I had quite a few Christmas parties this year. Sadly, I didn't do much with the band. But we are working on our new album release. We have plans to go out to Memphis next June and sing at Graceland. They have a very awesome stage for bands to play there. I miss getting out and singing the way I used to at the coffee shops and the small clubs. But I believe God will be opening more doors for me again soon. Perhaps that chapter is over, and a new modern one begins. To date, I have written over 200 songs that I feel have quality potential. I like to try out new styles. I verge on the Pop at times, but my forte is the "folky side" of Country Music. That is where my heart lies. I am going to take guitar lessons and voice lessons again soon to improve my technique. I'm also back in college now. So I am do...
