Raised in a musical family, his Maternal Scottish ancestors have been troubadours for generations. He learned to play guitar from his grandmother, who also taught him harmonica and bagpipes. His mother, Lillian, played him and his siblings to sleep nearly every night with honky-tonk piano music. His dad "Pops," played harmonica, and button accordian.
Vic has worked with such well known entertainers as:
Tex Williams
