- Born August 7, 1950 in Houston, TX,
Rodney got his start
with Emmylou Harris#39;
Hot Band, being one of the original members. An impressive songwriter, Emmylou recorded many of his songs,
including Leavin Louisiana, Aint Living
Long Like This, Til I Gain Control Again, You#39;re Supposed to be Feeling Good,
Even Cowgirls Get the Blues.. The list goes on. From his first solo album, Aint Livin#39; Long Like This, to
his most recent release on RCA, Jewel of the South, Rodney has
consistently proved to be a songwriter who takes his craft seriously, as do the host of artists who have recorded his
material..
A talented performer in his own right, he has yet to get the wide
spread
recognition he so richly deserves.
