Buddy Jewell
Dreams come true. We’ve all heard that. So, after winning the Dallas regional ALABAMA June Jam Talent Search and a couple of wins as Male Vocalist Champion on Ed McMahon’s StarSearch, Buddy Jewell packed up his family and headed to Nashville to make his dream come true.
A native Arkansan, Buddy’s earliest recollection of music was associated with the radio in his parents’ old blue Dodge. “I must have been about four years old ” recalls Buddy, “and I remember trying to look inside the radio dial, hoping to catch a glimpse of the “little people” that I thought lived in there! I figured there must have been at least 100 of them because of all those different voices and sounds coming out of that little box in the dashboard. And all the time, I was wondering how they got to be so small and wishing I could get in there with them.
