Hoedowns/Patter
In 1986 Jerry Story and I founded Royal Records. It quickly became one of the largest square dance music labels, and since that time, Royal Records has been the source for callers desiring quality square dance music.
It is my intention to continue the tradition that Jerry and I started almost 40 years ago by leading the activity and providing the best music in our industry. I hope that the music that Royal Records provides gives you the same enjoyment that I get from producing it.
