Artist description Eddie L.Branch Songwriter/Lyricist 9-01-03 Musical Direction At A Very Young Age I Heard People Like Hank Snow, Hank Williams, Ernest Tubb, And Bill Monroe, And Flatt And Scruggs. I Decided That This Was The Music That Had The Sound And Style That I Liked, Then I Heard Merle Haggard And Faron Young, And Buck Owens And Jeorge Jones, And That Hooked Me On Country Music. As A Teenager, I Rodeod At Several Of The Same Rodeo's As Reba Mcentyre, So I Worshipped Her From A Far For Several Of My Formative Years.As I Grew Up My Home Was Filled With The Down Home Sound Of The Music Of Oklahoma.I Found That The Music Had A Flavor All It's Own, That Didn't Have To Be Copied, Only Translated And Interpreted. That Got Me Started Writing Music As Well As Playing And Singing What I Call "My Music". Writing History I Started Writing Lyrics At The Age Of 18. Around 1973 I Started Playing In Talent Shows As A Lead And Rythm Guitar Player With A Couple Of Local Bands. They Never Did Anything Special, But It Sure Was Fun. In 1995 I Found My Biological Father And Quickly Realized Where My Talent And Love Of Music Came From. We Started Playing Senior Citizens Dances And At Hospitals And The Old Folks Homes. It Never Did Pay Any Money, But Made Them, As Well As Ourselves Smile Song Info. As Of August 2003 I Have 59 Copyrighted Songs. I Write Both Country And Western And Country Gospel Ballads. I Like The Old Two Step Belt Buckle Polishing Style. I Have One CD Out At This Time Called Time Goes On Collection.(C)2003. It Has 11 Songs On It Both Country And Gospel. All The Lyrics And Music I Wrote, And It Was Engineered By Sheryl Clapton Studios Of Albquerque N.M. And Co-Produced By Sheryl Clapton And Myself. Future Plans I Hope To Be Signed By A Record Label And Spend The Rest Of My Life Writing Music. Thank You For Spending Part Of Your Time With Me. Eddie Branch
