Acoustic Guitars
"I have played guitar on recording sessions and live with some of Nashville's most respected and sought-after musicians, and I have done the same with folks that may never be heard. I still daydream about the world I hear in headphones, and I still believe there is truth in there…more so now than ever. And although the process of making records and writing songs is a little less mysterious now, I am still enthralled, humbled and excited by the whole process." And after all those hours of listening to him as a nine-year-old boy, Shane did get to meet Johnny Cash. "That alone, was worth the ride. Starting from my neighbor's living room as a kid, and eventually making my way to Nashville as a songwriter and musician…who would have thought."

A seasoned singer, songwriter, and session vocalist with over 20 years in the music industry, including six years touring across the globe as a lead vocalist with the legendary band Journey. Raised on the vibrant sounds of Cajun and Zydeco music in southern Louisiana, Travis blends those roots with Rock, Pop, and Country—developing a style that adapts effortlessly to a wide range of genres.
Lead Vocals
I am the holistic, singing mama. I sing and coach others on their vocal journeys. I spent a decade on the road with a tambourine in my hand but now you can likely find me in my garden with a baby or two on my hip. I believe wellness is a lifestyle and that applies to our voice more than most of us realize. An ounce of prevention is always worth more than ten pounds of treatment! I believe we were all born to create. I believe we all benefit from voice work. I believe we all carry divine gifts and I would love to help you find yours. Thanks for stopping by. I love you.
