Details:
Guy Farmer was born and raised in the hot sands of Florida. He spent most of his childhood catchin'' gaters and playin’ the guitar. Little did he know, his gator wrestling skills would land him a scholarship to college. Guy earned a degree and then swore of gator wrestling, as it just didn''t make him feel the way his ol'' six string did.
Guy''s career as a musician started when he joined a group called the Riverside Rounders. Of course, at that time, the weekly gigs weren''t quite enough to pay all of the bills; so Guy did what any hard working man would have done... he started driving a dump truck. It was during his dump truck days that Guy began to pen so many of the songs that would later be found on his self titled debut. While the weekly gigs with the Rounders and the solo gigs kept him happy, guy sensed his times in Florida were coming to a close. Guy recalls, "I was getting to accustomed to the smell of the dump and decided that I had to get out of there." Guy packed up his bags and headed for the rolling hills of Tennessee.
Once in Nashville, Guy decided he was ready to lay down the songs he had been working on during all of those lunch breaks at the dump. Not having a clue as to where to start, Guy wondered through Nashville soaking up all of the city life. One spring day, he made his way down Broadway and stumbled into Ernest Tubb Record shop, where so many had pioneered before. It was here that he would meet a woman who would slip him the secret he had so desperately been searching. He gave her $36 for a copy of John Cash''s The Collection: Folsom Prison/At San Quentin/America box set; and she gave him his CDs and a postcard with a local studio address.
As it turned out, this postcard would put Guy Farmer in contact with two local producer/engineers, who would eagerly take him under their wing, Rosemary Haskins and Patrick Himes. It would be at their Nashville based studio, WaterWorks Entertainment, that Guy would record his debut record.
Two months later, now a part of the WaterWorks family, Guy has released his self-titled debut. And so my friends, the story, has really only begun...
*Guy has also played in "Bailey''s Four," "Guy and Geoff," and the previously mentioned "Riverside Rounders". All releases from those projects are currently out of print.
