Aaron Watson


We have a good friend from college named Aaron Watson. He was always fiddlin' around with his guitar in college. He'd sing for us & we always knew he was really talented. Well, Aaron decided to enter a contest for up and coming musical talents while we were in college. He and James drove down to Luckenbach and hand delivered Aaron's demo CD to Larry Gatlin during Willie Nelson's Annual Picnic. Aaron won the contest and has since become quite the little singer. He came to town this past weekend for a concert. James, Matt & Aaron golfed Saturday morning and then he spent the day at our house. We had the best time remembering the good old college days. Aaron has not changed a bit. I am so proud of him. He doesn't drink or cuss and his songs are all clean too, which is nice in this day and age. He has this huge following and he is still as sweet and humble as he's always been. He travels and sings on Thursday, Friday & Saturday nights and he's at church on Sunday mornings. We went and saw his show at the fair Sat. night with Hilary and Bird. It's so cool to see thousands of people cheering for him and screaming his name. Those of you who haven't heard any of Aaron's music, I highly recommend you look at his website (http://www.aaronwatson.com/) & listen to some of his music. He's really talented. My favorites are Off the Record, San Angelo, Shut Up and Dance, and I Don't Want You to Go! Well, there's my shameless little plug for Aaron, not that he needs it!
