“My hometown Houston, TX is a smokefree venue town. I have been around long enough to remember when that wasn’t the case. I tour all over the USA and some in Western Europe now, and occasionally I’ve played a smoking venue. The memories come flooding back of the not-so-good old days. It takes me up to a week to recover my voice. Because I cannot afford to damage my voice, I never return to those venues. I strongly support the work of Smoke Free Music Cities to create a healthy inside environment at venues for musicians, patrons, and staff.”
