Ray Ligon: I uncovered my passion for music early on when my Dad bought me my first guitar. From that point on, I was hooked. Thus my journey began and I started song writing.
I followed my dream and began songwriting. I started my journey of learning the craft of songwriting and it continues to this day.
I find inspiration all around me. I try to make my music something that touches the heart of the listener. I love when folks are moved in an emotional way.
