My professional career began at the age of 15 when I began playing the fiddle at the WNOX Tennessee Barndance in Knoxville, TN. A year later I began playing in shows in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. Over the next 17 years I played in the shows and played on albums for many different artists. In 2001 I began traveling with Tommy Tenney, author of The GodChasers and founder of The GodChasers Network. Since then, I have ministered in hundreds of churches all over the United States, Canada, Ireland, and England. A few of the ministries that I have ministered with and / or for include: Tommy Tenney, Dr. David Jeremiah, Dr. Jerry Falwell, Ron Phillips, Karen Wheaton, Morris Cerullo, Ron Kenoly, Lindell Cooley, Randy and Paula White, David and Nicole Binion, and Andrae Crouch.
A few of the Country Music artists that I have played and / or recorded with include: Merle Haggard, Tom T. Hall, Marty Raybon, Jimmy Fortune, Linda Davis, Jack Green, T. Graham Brown, Jeannie Seely, Boxcar Willie, Bryan White, Porter Wagoner, Bill Anderson, Dolly Parton, Jean Shepard, Jo-El Sonnier, Jim Ed Brown, Billy Walker, Jim Glaser, Tammy Cochran, Bailey & the Boys, Jan Howard, Pirates of the Mississippi, John Berry, Charlie Louvin, Leroy Van Dyke, Ray Pillow, and so on ...

Some of my favorite things are
Worshiping God, playing music, family time, working on new recording projects, talking to older folks, metal detecting, good guitar amps, fine musical instruments, nice watches, overalls, mountains, the simple life, and hundreds of other things.

Like what you're doing Mark and admire the passion behind it. Not quite where you are but admire the use of your playing as a vehicle to express your beliefs. Happy to be your friend...Ray
