Philip has shared the stage with numerous artist over the years along with having songs in movies and TV shows. After placing in the top 40 of Nashville Star Philip realized this was not the avenue for him, he hated going through the bullshit associated with these shows and went back to doing what he does best. Writing songs and playing live. Philip is currently playing around the Southeast as a solo artist and with Buckofive the best band in the world.
