Ron is a versatile lead guitar player, harmonica player and backup vocalist with experience across multiple genres of music. A veteran player in the Destin area, Ron has played in successful and well known classic rock and R&B bands prior to joining Clinch 46. In 2009, Ron was ready to take it to the next level in a band where he could "Rock your Face", and the opportunity to join Clinch 46 was exactly what Ron was looking for. The Clinch 46 players seemed really together and ready to go for it, and it all came together very naturally.
