Boone

Multi-instrumentalist, accomplished songwriter, revered singer, and no holds barred entertainer… his momma calls him Daniel but to everybody else, he’s just Boone. 22 years ago, in a little Indiana town south of Evansville, Daniel Thomas Epperson made his first, ever appearance. And shortly thereafter, his alter ego, Boone, was born. Boone was tagged with the namesake, early on, as an endeared comparison to the legendary woodsman, Daniel Boone due to his overwhelming passion for the outdoors. And this passion, by instinct, bled far into the other interest areas of his life including sports and, of course, music. This raw and uninhibited trait is the fuel behind the fire of his fearless voice and the drive of his savage-like approach to performing. Like many country artists throughout the years, Boone started his musical ambitions in church, playing guitar as well as piano. He then lent his vocal talents to the high school choir and entertained his fellow students at lunch on Fridays playing country classics by Merle Haggard and Keith Whitley. In his senior year, he entered and won the Indiana State Future Farmers of America talent competition and, to be cliché’, the seed was planted. The win brought attention to his undeniable talents, and Boone began to play fairs and clubs around Indiana. For the next few years, he continued to hone his crafts as a musician and singer, playing shows whenever possible. After repeated requests for original material by his fans and radio supporters, Boone dove head first into songwriting and quickly derived a style uniquely his own. He soon had penned tunes worthy of recording and, with guitar in hand, Boone headed south to Nashville. From his first “real” recording session, Boone “cut” a handful songs for an EP, including the YouTube sensation, “Redneck Heroes,” which pulled in a couple of hundred thousand views, including the eyes of some Nashville executive big cats. Now, Boone is releasing his first single, “Summer Girls,” to country radio this summer, putting the final touches on a new EP, “American Young Hearts,” and preparing for a busy, upcoming touring season. This is the end of this bio but, stay tuned, it’s just the beginning for the guy they call Boone. My the music video for my debut single "Summer Girls"- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4KtKtB_isa8
