Band Bio
Highway 3 is part family and part friends that all live somewhere off Highway 3 in Kitsap County. 
It all started out as something fun to do to get together,  jamming on the porch and in the garage. Before too long it turned into something much more. 
Highway 3 performs Country/Rock/Pop cover tunes from the 60’s, 70’s, 80’s & 90’s with a little country flare.  We cover great recording artists such as The Eagles, Crosby Stills Nash, The Beatles, Marshall Tucker Bank, Alabama, and the list goes on.

Band motto: "We play what we like."

Raised a Navy brat, lived mostly in the South. Transferred to Kitsap County in 2002, at the end of a 24-year Navy career.  Married to his beautiful wife Reneé since 1997, 3 wonderful children and 4 grandchildren.  I love to sing and have devoted 12 years to barbershop choruses and quartets singing lead and tenor, enjoyed many years as worship lead for church congregations we have attended, and am so thankful and humbled to be the front man for Highway 3.  Won't eat liver, lamb, or eggplant!
