In early 2022, I was invited to join the T.N.T. Cover Band as the new house drummer for the Lebanon Grand Opry. I had previously worked with the show's producer and lead performer, Jessie Lyn Fisher, and was excited to take on a consistent live performance role in a respected regional venue.

As the drummer, I performed an extensive setlist of country classics, including songs by Patsy Cline, Merle Haggard, Dolly Parton, George Strait, and many others. The band supported a rotating lineup of guest vocalists each week, which required flexibility and strong collaborative timing to keep each show running smoothly.

Each performance at the Lebanon Grand Opry offered a unique mix of music, dancing, and community connection. The band’s goal was to deliver an authentic and engaging experience for both the audience and the guest singers who joined us on stage.

Working with the T.N.T. Cover Band helped me sharpen my adaptability, stage presence, and appreciation for classic country music. It was a rewarding opportunity to bring live music to life for an enthusiastic and loyal audience.
