This song is about Social Media. We go online as a man you have to deal with women who change their photos with filters. I see women who show their stuff and I get hit with the drama of today’s world. It’s not an easy place to relax. 

My Music is Country Music. I try to create music that everybody might enjoy. Music is in my heart. It’s something that I will do until the day I die…All of the songs I write have something to do with my life. At times when I go online to different sites like Twitter and Facebook I come across women with filters and women who like to show their stuff and lots of Drama.

How do you think this release represents your current direction..: I believe that every song that I do just keeps getting better and this song Social Pages shows my style just keep keeps getting better. I worked on this song in the studio with Don Garvin. This guy is The Best of the Best. He has a way of making a song sound its very best.

What most inspires you?: I’m just me. I don’t change for anybody. A country boy with a country heart. I create my music in hopes of having people after hearing my music say now that’s some great music. I really enjoy what I do. I love to play guitar and when I sing It’s like a guide while on stage. I love seeing the people at my shows having a great time and enjoying my songs.

What was one notable event that helped shape your last decade? : One of the things that stand out from the last decade was the Nominations for Grammy awards.

What’s your goal for 2020?: A new album, touring, A big Hit song.A tour of Europe.

The music business & Being a musician today: The music business changes all the time. You always have to keep up.

Being a musician today is a long hard road. You always have to give more than you get back.
