When
you meet him at church, he's the kind of man you'd
want your daughter to bring home. When you see

CC Hagen (or Cliff Calvin Hagen if he's late for
dinner) makes his musical transformation from gentle,
kind-hearted soul to honkey-tonk outlaw on stages
across the country and it can be heard most clearly on
his CD, "Where Have All The Outlaws Gone."
CC's album, featuring several original songs is
not only a tribute to the many musical flavors that
have helped shape him as an artist, but is also a
powerful representation of his diverse musicianship
and high octane creativity.
