About

I enjoy sports (especially college football), concerts, cycling, my home, family & friends.  A lot of people say, “Don’t you like to travel?”  I like an occasional short trip to take in a concert or a football game, but I truly enjoy being at my home.  My most impactful/emotional experience (aside from the birth of my 2 sons) was hearing session musicians play songs I wrote (5) at a recording studio in Henders

On The Web

I’m currently not on any other social media websites.

Instruments & Skills

My main instrument is the keyboard. Because I grew up in a very small, "Mayberry-like" town, I attended a school that encompassed grades 1 - 12, all on the same campus and I was in the high school band (played French horn) in the 3rd grade. When I was in the 10th grade, I formed a band out of members of our high school band. We basically modeled our sound after The Tijuana Brass, made up of 2-trumpets, a baritone, a trombone, and my brother on percussion, as well as me on a Hammond organ. I became addicted to the arranging process, although the varying key signatures of these different instruments posed a major hurdle, initially.

Influences

Jason Isbell, Billy Joel, Vince Gill, Lady Antebellum, Jeffrey Steele, Ben Hayslip

Thank you so much, Frank Renfordt!  But, I find it hard to believe anyone being as old as me!!! Seriously, I’m pleased you were able to relate to the visuals associated with this song…

Thank you so much, Ditalian Cole!  It means a lot to me that you relate to my songs.  I thought “May 32” was a clever song and I liked the guitar lick at the into and at various spots throughout the song.  Are you near the Tampa area?

Inasmuch as our songwriting represents a window into who we are, your songs leave me with a feel-good disposition, as well as grateful for our new, songwriting friendship.  I truly appreciate the perspective you share in your songs!  Another really nice song!!

Marvin, your songs typically take me back to a simpler time I used to know.  I relate to your songs and enjoy my journey back to the best of my memories when I listen to your music.  Thanks, another wonderful song!
