an independent artist and songwriter from Nashville, Tennessee. His love for music began
at a young age, following in the footsteps of his late brother, Stephen "Jay-Dubb"

resilience, passion, and a love for the craft. From opening for mainstream artists at Exit/In

and Virginia Beach, VA, he continues to make an impact with his powerful performances
and undeniable talent.
