Bear Bailey

I drank the kool-aid.

Bear Bailey is the humble type. He keeps it real, especially when in the studio, hes not afraid to show his humor. Give the room 5 seconds of silence and hes breaking it with a tasteful run of his voice.

After our studio session we took a drive to his home out in the country, where he enjoys kickin’ it to Bennie and the Jets by Elton John. His go to drink is every 90s kids favorite; yoohoo. My oh my how I forgot how good these things were. As sunset approaches, he showed me where he enjoys his morning ritual of walking down his road praying and talking with God. We then made a fire with old wood from his deck that he recently fixed.
