His roots, however, trace back to the hills of East Tennessee, where during and after his high school years he sang and played with Country and Bluegrass bands until heading off to college. He spent time in the U.S. Army, a few years in the cattle business, and brief stints in and out of bands and studios in between until eventually settling down in Nashville to focus on his love for songwriting.
