How long have you been playing, singing, writing...or what ever it is that you do in the band? I've been playing and singing almost all my life. I started writing just a couple years ago.

Did you play in any other bands before New Son? I've played with the Forrest Four and my family's gospel group almost all of my life. I also played in Do South, and for other artists. I am also the worship leader and youth pastor at my current and past churches.

How long have you been playing, singing, writing...or what ever it is that you do in the band? I've been playing for roughly 17 years. Guess I should be better by now. LOL I started writing and singing around that same time.

Did you play in any other bands before New Son? Yes, Chance's Are..or something like that...back in high school. Then it was on to Do South, which actually got me to thinking more serious about music and my playing - we did pretty good. Then it was solo-living room jams and open mic nights for a few years. Warren Smyrl (South First Band) and I played the scene for a short while together. Played at church with Stephen until NSB was born. I still catch an occasional song writer's night here and there.

How long have you been playing, singing, writing...or what ever it is that you do in the band?

I've been playing for about 9 years, I've been singing around 13 years and I've just recently started writing in the last year and a half or so.

Did you play in any other bands before New Son?

Well, I've played in a couple of Praise and Worship bands in Oklahoma and Texas, and I am currently the worship leader at Caprock Springs Fellowship in Post, Texas.

How Long Have You Been Playing, Singing, Writing:

Started playing in the school band when I was 10 but didn't get my first

kit until I was 33. So I've been playing seriously for 5 years. I

don't sing and I don't write - I leave that to the professionals.

Did You Play In Any Other Bands Before New Son:

I started playing with the "Thousand Hills Band" 5 years ago which is a

local praise and worship group. I am currently playing with our praise and worship team at church in Lubbock. I also play with a group of Christians here in Lubbock called "The Wise Guys", playing mainly retro stuff from the 50's, 60's & 70's.
