Darren says that he is a love child of a Willie, Kris and Buffet three-way. “I write and play music for one reason: I get crazy when I don't.” stated Darren Morrison. “My album collection mainly consists of Kristofferson, Willie, Waylon, Jerry Jeff, Dead, Buffett and Robert Earl. I like to cover these guys and we generally do a decent job of it. My music is a reflection of theirs. There have been times when I've consciously and intentionally written something I could hear Waylon doing. And sometimes it just comes out that way by happy accident.”“I enjoy doing solo, duet, acoustic, song-swap shows, etc. But I much prefer to play with the band. My favorite nights are those when the Shanks Brothers Band (Timmy Shanks – Bass, Jimmy “Silky” Shanks – Drums, John Tally – Piano, Jimmy “Slim Jim” Rose – Harmonica) gets hot and everyone catches the groove together. When you don't think about playing, it just happens. When your fingers just do what they do and take you along for the ride, you can feel the energy.”
