This writer/artist has a real talent for entertaining. He is a favorite of Air Personalities from Willies Place on XM Rado to stations from Austin TX to the UK. His personality captures an audience in his first few words. He lights up the stage as well as the room whether he is performing as a single, duo or with his entire band BOTH BARRELS.

Lonnie has had over 30 songs recorded by other artists including his composition "Keystone Coal" which was recorded by Bobby Osborne on Bobbys 2009 "Bluegrass and Beyond" CD. Lonnie has three of his own CD's to his credit and counting.

Lonnie is definitely "Unapologetically Honky Tonk" which is the title of his 2nd CD. One of his greatest honors was having Johnny Bush sing a duet with him on "Close Up The Honky Tonks". Robert K Orrman, a Nashville music critic, gave the CD a "Must Listen" in his Music Row Magazine column. He stated "It's my kind of record".

Between his 1st CD "My Future Ain't What It Use To Be" and his 2nd CD "Unapologetically Honky Tonk" he charted 6 times on the Best In Texas chart and is a staple on the European CMA Chart having scored 5 #1's off of his second CD. He recentlyd id a tour in England and Wales which was a huge success. Maverick Magazine, the Country Music Magazine of the UK, did an exteded article on him as did The Best In Texas magazine.

If you haven't had the pleasure of seeing Lonnie perform live then put on your boots; get ready to laugh, dance and hear what Texas Honky Tonk sounds like because LONNIE SPIKER is "COMING TO A HONKY TONK NEAR YOU"...OH and by the way, that is the title of his 3rd CD which includes duets with Amber Digby and Justin Trevino.
