I started playing the guitar when I was 12. My dad taught me to play. He is and was a big classic rock fan. As well as a Paul McCartney fan. So I got some great guitar lessons just by listening to music. I was always a big Christian music fan. A big part of learning for me was just sticking in a tape or CD and trying to play along. DC Talk was great for that. I started playing and leading worship for my youth praise band growing up. I had a band with in Missouri with the guys from my youth group. H.O.G. Rocks!! After high school I was busy at the church my parents pastored and also worked full time at Lowe's. Yes, I sold lots of lumber. I still remember a few item numbers. Not long after that I joined up with the rest of the guys in MercyMe and have not looked back since. I still enjoy making music and writing songs. I look forward to what the future brings.

Yo-
Well, as you know we are doing a tour this fall which as surprising as it may sound, we did have to practice for. I say practice but we like to call it "rehearsal." Makes it sound a little more professional. haha. We have been friends with the folks at Irving Bible Church for many years now, and they have a great little studio at the church run by the infamous Dave Younkman, that we use for our rehearsal time. Works out great. Since we have to do our rehearsals for our tour starting in September, in July, we can record it all and then try to remember it all again later. But, we have some cool stuff lined up for the tour. So make sure to come check it out when we get near you.
