Album Notes

I love country music. Not only does it make me
feel good, but it’s fun to sing whether it be a tender
love song or an upbeat story that makes you want
to get up and dance. It’s bold , sometimes edgy,
yet simple. It’s real life, telling it like it is at any
given time.

It’s All Good is a combination of various country
styles ranging from contemporary country and swing,
to country rock. It’s mostly the kind of songs that
make you feel real good.

These songs represent how I feel about life…keep it
real, try and stay positive even when it’s trying to beat
you down.

Honestly, I'm a veteran singer who has wandered around just singing, until now. I've had so many influences, in various music styles. Of course, just like everyone else, I've lived life and I want to share it...stories that we can all relate to. So I will tell them in my own way, songs about love and hurt, family, and even war. I have found a home in country. Remember, growing up in the country doesn't necessarily make you a great country artist. The most important thing is that you tell your story and be country in your heart, regardless of where you\'re from.

By the way, I co-wrote \"It\'s All Love\" and \"To be Loved By You\" on this CD. Check them out. I certainly hope that I can make you a fan.

Just to let you know, I\'ve had the privilege of working with Nashville\'s finest on this CD. Tom Paden, songwriter and producer, wrote 9 of the 12 songs (2 with me) on this CD and also produced it. My musicians on It\'s All Good are, Larry Beaird, Chris Leuzinger, Glen Duncan, Duncan Mullins, Paul Scholten, Mike Rojas, Scotty Sanders and Robby Turner. These are the best session players that Nashville or any place, has to offer!

Enjoy!

…til next time…
