She never played it, so he decided to pick it up and teach himself. After spending a few months learning chords with help from his friends the Williams clan, he immediately began writing his own songs and hasn’t looked back since. His first song written in the fall of 2003 was a storytelling ballad in the fashion of his influences Cory Morrow, Robert Earl Keen, and Willie Nelson. “Old Man’s Story” is a song about an old cowboy on the run from the law after avenging the death of his wife and is featured on his EP Runaway with me. This first encounter with a ‘pen and pad’ and a guitar set the tone and inspiration for narrative-infused rhythms to come. Songs about hell-bent women, Texas road trips, troubadours and murder opened the stage for a wild ride at the Donny Waits show and are sure to keep listeners entertained and craving for more.
His first time in front of the microphone was at Chilly Willy’s in Baytown in 2004 and was followed by many acoustic performances and a desire to grow his talents from passion to career. In the spring of 2007 Donny began working with a full band and embarked on his debut CD project. He has performed recently at venues such as the Firehouse Saloon in Houston, Armadillo Palace in Houston, Marguerite’s in Santa Fe, Blue Moon Saloon in Bellville, Reno’s in Shepherd, and River Road IceHouse in New Braunfels. Within the past two years significant events have included the Pasadena Cook-off, the Summer Jam at the Hearthstone Country Club in Houston, the Scott Todaro benefit at the Gulf Greyhound Park, Rowdy Float Trip 08, and Lukenbach, Texas. Donny has opened for Texas talents such as Cross Canadian Ragweed, Honeybrowne, Bleu Edmondson, Mike Mancy, and Mark Sanders.
Donny Waits’ performances are immediately noted by audiences as professional, energetic, and entertaining. Look for him to be at a stage near you!
