BIO: Austin is a full-time singer/songwriter/guitar player. Although
he is currently living in LA's San Fernando Valley, he keeps in touch
with his southern roots: he plays in several singer/songwriter nights
around LA, and is a part of the city's burgeoning country scene. Although
he spends most of his time making a living playing guitar, he has also
done some work on soap operas. He collects autographs of country stars,
concentrating on "old school" stars like Buck, Merle, Waylon, and George.
PERSONAL STATEMENT: "I like to think that I'm the last of a free
breed, one of the last of the full-grown men. And when I decided that
what I do IS your daddy's country-rock, I promised to share it with all
civilians - that includes you new recruits that tune in to Nashville Star.
'3 chords and a cloud of dust' best describes my live shows - or,'3 chords,
no waiting, I can take y'all over here.' Give me a 1,2,3,4, and I'll see
ya at the encore baby..."
