MY FAVORITE CONCERT EXPERIENCE: Lenny Kravitz – February 6, 1999 – Fox Theater, Atlanta. My buddy Jared and I snuck into the venue before the show to watch Collective Soul soundcheck, got busted and somehow ended up hanging out backstage with Lenny’s band before the show.
I WROTE THIS SONG: for a friend struggling with depression – as encouragement to hold tight to his faith and the ones who love him. Hold On is from my latest album entitled Taming The Wind.
