His high energy shows, along with his pary atmosphere and songs, are just what the doctor ordered for a good time. Mixing in the influences of his past and present in many different genres, Palmer has found a sound that is truly his own. Palmer and his band currently tour the southern states, but are always looking to venture out farther. Hold on tight...this ride is just getting started! Palmer is out of Northwest Louisiana providing premium entertainment that plays the best of today's country and yesterday's favorites, while adding his own originals. He put together a band in 2005 and has been performing over 150 shows per year. This is a group of both veteran musicians and fresh talent that has become a favorite at many of the local venues in the Shreveport/Bossier City area. Additionally, they have played regional establishments in Texas, Arkansas, Southern Louisiana, Mississippi and numerous other parties and receptions. The band's reputation for high energy live shows has allowed them to play such notable events as the James Burton Festival, Barksdale Air Force Base's Summer Bash, BACA (Biker's Against Child Abuse), Fundraisers, AFLAC yearly conventions, Louisiana State Fair , the Jazz Festival in Natchitoches, Louisiana, Geno's 2008 Christmas Pajama Party, and the Hard Rock Casino's Roadhouse Live and Center Bar.
