I’ve got the songs, the experience, the drive, the passion! Give me a freakin chance!
Thank you for generously supporting Back Pocket Buddha in this year's competition. Your participation allows us to empower Global Citizen in their mission to eradicate extreme poverty and create a world where everyone has an equal chance to thrive.
Who or what is your musical inspiration?
I grew up with music, I come from a musical family and used to steal my brother's guitar to learn Led Zeppelin tunes. It's always been with me....
How would performing at the Global Citizen Festival impact your career?
Are you kidding? I'm a middle-aged dude living in eastern North Carolina. I think it would be a pretty big leap for me! I've played lots of gigs in my life but to play a stage/festival like GCF would be life-altering. So many of my heroes would be there, it would be surreal.
What would you do with $50,000?
I have two kids and a wife and they're all in school. That money would go directly to helping them get through their stuff and whatever's leftover for me is going towards evolving my home studio, or more instruments ;)
