For those of you who listen to this program regularly, you know when I hear about an artist that intrigues me I start to dig deep, in my quest to find more of a good thing and satisfy my curiosity of the WHY Someone does this wonderful things they do. Our next guest is just such a person. The first time I had heard him was in 2012 as a co-writter on the ZZ Top track “FlyinHigh” then later on his incredible expression of American music on a record called “Alabastard”. He’s an excellent musician working in film, TV, touring, writing, But, there’s SO much more beyond that and I’m hoping we get to talk about it all and satisfy my curiosity, please welcome to GRS Mr. Austin Hanks.
