T-Poe Nash
Modern Day Troubadour
T-Poe Nash sits alone on stage with a
microphone and a spotlight. He strums his acoustic guitar and shares
his music with the silent, watching audience beyond the stage. The
songs are his--musical poetry T-Poe creates with all the love and
care of a sculptor shaping a piece of granite or a photographer
shooting an image. “My songs attempt to capture a moment,” he says,
describing his music. “I write and sing acoustic songs about life,”
he adds. “Love, pain, happiness, loss—these are the emotions that
make up our lives. My songs are emotions set to music.”
Among T-Poe's most recent accomplishments
are his appearances at such Nashville clubs as the Bluebird Cafe,
the Commodore Lounge, the Hall of Fame Lounge, the French Quarter,
Caffeine, and Douglas Corner Cafe where he has performed numerous
times, playing and singing his original compositions. "I like
the role of singer-songwriter," he says. "My songs are about
the things everyday people go through in life. They're about
everyday life, everyday people." T-Poe has also recorded
several live performances for the television show "Nashville On
Stage" and was aired on Pax to approximately 3.5 million viewers.
T-Poe has been collaborating with Wayne Moss, also known as
"Barefoot Jerry", on several projects including songwriting and
recording. The band Barefoot Jerry recently released a
song "Watching TV Again" featuring T-Poe on drums and was aired on
satellite radio.
The creation of a song for T-Poe
usually begins with two or three chords on his guitar. “From there,
the words come from my heart,” he says, “They come from my soul,
woven through the chords like threads in a piece of cloth.” The
result is a song about life—played and sung in T-Poe’s unique style.
"I want to take people back to yesterday, when there was no hurt, or
make them think about tomorrow, when things will be better."
Ever filled with the fire of love for
music and the contributions he can make to it, T-Poe applies his
talent to creating music that will mean something to the countless
people who will hear it. “My music is changing my life,” he
reflects. He sees himself as a modern-day troubadour journeying on
the road to a musical career. With each step along that road he
moves closer to his ultimate destination—the fulfillment of his
dream to write and sing and share his songs with others. “I write
and sing for my fellow travelers through life,” T-Poe says.
Resolute, determined, T-Poe Nash follows his dream.
