South Texas Native, is a 5th generation cowboy. Dustin grew up immersed in the cowboy lifestyle. Because of his lifestyle, Dustin's interests naturally gravitated towards the western lifestyle and country music. Aside from being a cowboy, his father also sang in a country band back in his early 20's. Watching his own father play guitar and sing was what deeply motivated Dustin to pick up country music for himself. Through the influences of country music legends such as Chris Ledoux, George Strait, Alan Jackson, Ronnie Milsap, and more, Dustin began writing his own music with the intention of making a mark in the country music industry.
