About the Composer/Artist - Though the artist/composer is a multi million selling songwriter with credits including many of country music's legendary stars, he cannot read music. His musicianship is limited to the acoustic guitar only. All other instrument sounds on every song of his albums, he plays free hand one note at a time on the Korg triton work station keyboard lending a grass roots approach to his recordings. This lends an insight to his unorthodox ability and uniquely calibrated musical mind rarely present in other artist/composers where most have their recorded music is played by a variety of master level session musicians.
