Quick Interview

Q:  How would you describe the Rollin' River Band to a stranger?
A:  That's easy!  I'd tell everyone that this band is totally awesome and that they truly love their fans.  They're real down to earth!

Q:  How would you describe one of the favorite memories of your musical career?
A: One of my favorite memories is when I played with the "original" Rollin' River Band at a benefit concert for Joe Maddox.  It was really my first performance with a live band.

Q:  What is one of your favorite memories as a member of the Rollin' River Band? 
A:  We did a benefit concert for Doris Neiswonger.  Everyone chipped in time, money & talent in order to help raise money for her to get a back operation in order to help her walk again.

Q:  Who has influenced your personal music style?
A:  Dolly Parton, Lacy J. Dalton, Hootie & The Blowfish, Melissa Etheridge, Merle Haggard, Wynonna Judd, Alanis Morrisette, Fleetwood Mac, Aerosmith, Savage Garden, KT Tunstall, and Emmy Lou Harris.

Q:  How would you describe your personal music style?
A:  Attitude!  I absolutely love music and lyrics that put forth an attitude.  There's nothing better than reaching to the bottom of your gut and pushing your vocals out with an air of "in your face" attitude!

Q:  What would you like to see the Rollin' River Band do in the future that has not been done already? 
A:  I'd like for the band to cut a CD so that we can add mp3's to the website ;-)  Also, I'd love to have a professional photo shoot to get some really cool new pictures for the site!!!
