After meeting in 2016, Cliff & Susan have toured internationally in over 7 countries, performed over 200 shows per year, own and produce a music festival, a music production company, and co-founded the Entertainers Academy which helps independent artists have profitable music careers and stay current in today's everchanging music industry and digital age.
We met on stage in 2016, immediately formed our duo, then eloped in Vegas in 2017. We love doing what we love with the person we love! As entrepreneurs, we have co-founded Big Red Dog Productions, a music production and artist development company based in Little Rock, Arkansas. We co-founded an award-winning festival, Yadaloo Music & Arts Festival, and we tour the world performing over 200 shows a year together armed with a piano, fiddle, and guitar.
… and now we bring to you the Entertainers Academy.
