It's a song about a man trying to wash away his sorrow with a bottle of whiskey.
country music soul music gospel music rebel music outlaw music
Artist picture
In the style of Hank Williams I and III. My music is a blend of old school three chord country with a hard dose of rhythm and blues.
I have been writing songs for twenty years. I was in a band long ago, but it didn't work out. Now I choose to do all the writing, arranging and recording on my own. When you hear my music, you here 100% me.

Story behind the song
Come on!!! Who hasn't ever tried to throw back some stout drinks in an attempt to wash the taste of a failed relationship out of their mouths?
