At age of 13, he was invited onstage by the New Orleans bluesman Brian Lee and Stevie Ray Vaughan. After proving his abilities, he decided on music as a career. Using his own contacts in the record business Shepherd's father and manager, Wayne "Shotgun" Shepherd (a Shreveport celebrity and disc jockey) helped his son land a major-label record deal with Giant Records. In 1995, his debut album was entitled ''Ledbetter Heights'' and featured original material and a few cover version.
