>>>>>>>The player to the right will feature a variety of demos, worktapes and rough takes....some old, some new...whatever I feel like sharing at the moment. These tracks are not downloadable or for sale. They're just for fun and to show some of the twists and turns I take and the kind of walls I bounce off of in the writing process. Enjoy "The DemoListen Derby".

Mike and Betty's Daughter

October 11, 2008

Verlon was recently married to his long time sweetheart Demetria Kalodimos. Demetria is Nashville's best and favorite (in Verlon's opinion) journalist and television news anchor. She is also an accomplished writer, producer/director, film maker and documentarian. Her Genuine Human production company (www.genuinehuman.com) is responsible for the acclaimed Mary Gauthier "Mercy Now" video, as well as Shawn Camp's video, "Waiting For The Day To Break". Verlon has provided music for several of Genuine Human's documentaries and special projects.
CONGRATULATIONS V. and D.K.!

Verlon included in Nashville Portraits

Please check out Jim McGuires book "Nashville Portraits" at www.nashvilleportraits.com .
If you're any kind of music fan at all you'll want to own your own copy. Verlon was honored to be included in this wonderful collection of Mcguire's work. A classic shot of Verlon, Guy Clark and Shawn Camp that only Senor McGuire could capture.

You'll also want a copy of his "Historic Photos of The Opry" book.
