Great artist from Coldwater, Alabama -
I'm in a rush, so I'm just gonna paste his official bio
I ain’t special - MUSIC is special. Just so happens it’s what I do to earn a living...
So, I’ve played and written music my entire life. I’ve been lucky at times, and I’ve been good at times, and I’ve struggled... A LOT. The “right” musicians didn’t come along for me until about 6 months ago, and they are Bassist SHAWN DONAHOO and Drummer CLAY MARTIN - COLDWATER.
I’m honored to be an Alabama Music Hall of Fame Achiever and a Carnegie Hero Medal Winner.
I was humbled when critics embraced my ZANE RECORDS releases in 1999 and 2001, dubbing my newfound writing abilities as “platinum.” My song, “Town That Knows Everything” was heralded as “the best song SPRINGSTEEN never wrote.”
Yeah, I know. “Go figure!”
I’ll give you a list of credits like every musician/songwriter/artist does, but I’m more excited about now than then. However, I have been incredibly blessed to have worked or recorded with:
Greg Allman; “Idol” winner - Taylor Hicks; Sugarland; Widespread Panic; the late, great Buddy Miles and Butch McDade; Oteil Burbridge of The Allman Brothers; Derek Trucks; Bonnie Bramlett; Chuck Leavell; Jimmy Hall; The Drive-By Truckers; The Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section; The Memphis Horns; Dan Penn, Spooner Oldham and Donnie Fritz; Delbert McClinton; Mark Wills; Lenny LeBlanc (“Above All”); Jerry Joseph; Bloodkin; Whew!! I have been lucky!
COLDWATER is four hours of original, marketable and crowd-pleasing music spring-loaded and ready for energizing shows everywhere. We are a Roots Rock, Americana, Southern Roul (rock and soul) trio based out of Decatur, AL.
