Van Buren: ep 115. Chip Steele - Singer and Songwriter

Chip was born in Waco, and raised in Itasca, where he would often hear Tommy Alverson and the Boot Hill Band rehearsing in the back of Tommy's uncles barber shop in downtown Itasca. "Tommy's music would be reverberating off all of the down town buildings in Itasca when they rehearsed. I was there." -Chip Steele
