My name is Toney Wright ,(Cove55 on this site) and I'm a songwriter from Owens Cross Roads Alabama. I've played bass in numerous bands over the years and have been writing poems and such since I was a kid and started writing songs in around 1975. I was in my first band in 1975. We played country/rock and southern rock mostly and also some originals most of which I wrote or co-wrote. My writing style has changed over the years. but. I've always liked to keep it simple with the lyrics standing out most of all. I haven't played in a band in a long time. most of the bands I played in only did cover songs which is ok but, I got tired of that and just retreated to writing. I've played a few different instruments over the years Guitar, Bass some flute, dulicimer and auto harp. Now I have rheumatoid arthritis and have had for a long time. My hands have become crippled over the years and my fingers don't bend much anymore so I don't play and can't play much anymore. but, thanks to all the great music making software that's available I can still compose my songs with music. I hooked up with a great guitar Player online from Warrington, England. After I compose and mix my songs I send them to him and he puts a lead track to them. anyway I'm glad to be here and look forward to participating and sharing ideas with y'all....Toney
