Details:
Trafton Harvey was born in Tallahassee, Florida Januay 1, 1973. He was the first baby

born in Florida in 1973. The name Trafton came from the series "Gunsmoke" which was

popular back in the 60's. A character named Trafton came thru Dodge City and gave

Matt Dillon a hard time. He made a name for himself as well as a new-born baby

whose parents are Sheriff and Mrs. David Harvey. Trafton has resided in the Big Bend

Area most of his life. He graduated from Tallahassee Community College and then

attended Florida State University. His interest in playing a guitar and singing began

at the Lambda Chi house on the campus of Florida State. He formed a three piece band

with Dave Roberts and Michael Tilley. By 1992, he had a six piece, full blown country

extravaganza which became a huge success in the Tallahassee area.

Trafton then got a day job at Citizens Bank in Crawfordville managing one of their branch

banks. He continued singing and writing and moved to Nashville in 1996 to continue

his musical interests. Trafton managed the West End Branch of Southtrust Bank from

1996 to 1997. He signed with BMG Publishing Company, Cabin 11 Division in April 1998.

He was writing with Don Goodman, Jerry Foster, John Greenenbaum, Mike Anthony and

other Hall of Fame writers.


In late August 1998, Traftons life changed and was put on hold for 7 years. He contracted

viral encephalitis which is a viral infection in the brain. He was in a coma at Vanderbilt Hospital

in Nashville for 3 months. At this time, Trafton once again returned to Wakulla County

to "grow-up" for the second time. Miraculously, after 7 years, he has returned to the stage

and has just released his third CD "On The Side of the Road". This CD was produced by

the famous and talented Larry Butler. Trafton, the Come-Back Kid is BACK once again

ready to rock and roll!
