Hailing from the rural mountain town of Pinedale, Wyoming. Award-winning country/folk multi-instrumentalist, Reckless Rooster is the culmination of a decade's worth of hard, western states touring combined with a do-or-die-trying attitude the likes of which one could expect from a former working ranch cowboy turned traveling troubadour.

Averaging over one hundred live shows annually across eight western states, Rooster's high energy performances are a spectacle to behold.

Performing one-man-band style on flatpick guitar, squareneck dobro, fiddle, harmonica and foot percussion for three non-stop hours, Rooster effortlessly turns saloons, honky tonks and barrooms into whiskey-soaked, boot-stomping, dens of debauchery where western swing dancing is highly encouraged and having a hootin' an' hollerin' good time is an absolute must.

Never the type to be idle, Rooster spends his time off the road working for Sublette County Unified Fire as a Fire Prevention Officer and has spent his last four summers prior to 2024 working in wildland fire suppression.
