HOWDY Y’ALL ! My name is Gene Hardage and I’m also known as Sarasota Slim. I’m a true Florida cracker – born in the panhandle and raised in Sarasota – and yes I am slim. I’ve been at this music stuff longer than I’d like to me nurture this myth by playing my music for your friends and even calling admit, luckily this makes me somewhat legendary in certain circles. Help your local radio stations and seriously suggesting some Sarasota Slim songs. (now say that 6 times real fast!)
