He had the opportunity to join Larry Gatlin and Trisha Yearwood as well as many of his Broadway friends on stage for the Ford's Theatre Concert for the President featuring the music of The Civil War by Frank Wildhorn. Tad got his professional start as a performer at Opryland USA and the GenerAl Jackson Showboat.

He is excited to have found a kindred spirit in such a talented partner as Jessica Phillips.
