Born in Buffalo, Minnesota, Bruce received his fiddle when he was four years old, not surprising as both of his parents were professional musicians. As early as six years old he was performing on stage. At 14, he took his father's place in his band, later on joining a group called "High Noon". They cut three album projects, touring all over the continent and performing twice on Ed McMahon's "Star Search". He traveled to Branson in 1993, performing with the Texas Gold Miners, Barbara Fairchild and other great shows. Today with the Buck Trent Morning Show his versatility amazes audiences at every show.
