“The opportunity to release ‘The Auctioneer’ to radio is something that we have wanted to do for a very long time! This has been the most requested song of my career. When I was a kid my mom was a bookkeeper for an auction, so I grew up spending every weekend at the local sale barn. I remember admiring the Auctioneer and his ability to command the room not only as a bid caller but even as somewhat of an entertainer. I would come home every night and try to recreate what I had heard and seen at the auction. I’m certain that my family and friends got many hours of entertainment watching and listening to me mimic the auction cry!
Fast forward many years and I found myself in the bluegrass world. One night at a festival in Kentucky, I was asked to sing the Auctioneer as a joke. Little did I know that this joke would turn into a career move for my show!
Fast forward many more years, during the COVID era for musicians I had plenty of time off the road. Mary Rachel pushed me to go to Auctioneer School and it was there I became a certified Auctioneer!"
