Biography
I was born in Avon Park, FL. back in 1969 and lived in Lake Placid FL. In 1979 my family moved to Elba, AL. Today I still call it home. I graduated from Elba High School in 1987. Like many in country music, I cut my teeth listening to the old country record that my dad would stack up at night and let them play through. I would fall asleep listening to Merle Haggard, Conway Twitty, Hank Williams, George Jones, Kenny Rodgers and many more of the great country artists of that time. I would always sing along with the songs but never learned to play guitar or any other instrument when I was young. I just enjoyed singing. In my late teens, I would load up some guys in my truck and go to Vortex Springs, Florida. I would put Clint Black’s “Killing Time” cassette in the radio, climb up in the back of my truck and sing along. I would have a crowd around the truck but never thought for a second that I could sing for a living.
Today I have my first 10 song cd! I wrote 6 and co-wrote 2 of the songs. Thanks to Music City Explosion and Bruce Goodwin, I now have more than I could have imagined! This has been a 6 year building and learning process for me. I also realize that the learning has just begun. With the support of my fans, I hope this is the first of many cd's I get the chance to offer to the great country music fans around the world!!

I would like to thank God for his blessings! Without Him, this would have never came to be. My parents, Aubrey and Joyce Gilbert, for all of their love and support. My lovely wife, Christina, who has supported me through this long process. To my current fans and the ones I hope to make, yall' are the best!! Thanks for believing in me and I hope you enjoy this cd as much I have enjoyed sharing it!
