Buddy's Garage Band
If anyone asks you what kind of music you play, tell them pop -- don't tell them rock and roll or they won't even let you in the door
About
Born in Lubbock, Texas. Mama Ella taught me to play piano and sing harmony in the church. Lubbock is flat, dry, and boring -- perfect for practicing guitar 8 hours a day because there's nothing else to do. I wrote my own songs, led my own band (The Crickets), wore thick glasses, and proved you didn't have to be pretty to be a rock star. Peggy Sue. That'll Be The Day. Not Fade Away. I recorded in Clovis, New Mexico in a studio the size of a closet and the records sounded like the future. The Beatles named themselves after The Crickets. I died at 22 in a plane crash in an Iowa cornfield. The day the music died. But it didn't die. Every singer-songwriter who picks up a guitar and writes their own truth -- that's my legacy.
