Bruce grew up on a farm in a small town in eastern Kentucky with his Dad and brother. He was Introduced to music at a young age by default of having a musical family. Bruce fell in love with the art and could not seem to stop spending countless hours teaching himself how to play instruments starting at the age of 10. His Dad had a hard time getting him out of the bedroom because of his obsession with learning how to play the guitar. He loved turning on classic rock radio and teaching himself how to play and sing Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray, The Eagles, Bob Seger, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and many more of the soulful greats. At the age of 15 he began writing his own music, and that passion eventually brought him to Nashville, TN.
