"Dustin Sonnier is an American country music singer/songwriter from the small community of Vatican, Louisiana.
Dustin's passion for music began at a young age. "Growing up we listened to Keith Whitley and George Jones until my Dad went to work; then my Mom, a rocker at heart, introduced me to Ozzy, Van Halen, and Marshall Tucker" Dustin recalls.
Upon entering high school, Dustin quickly realized, " Girls are drawn to guys in a band." It was then, at age 13, that he picked up a guitar and joined a Christian country band. Dustin spent the next few years learning to hone his vocal and songwriting abilities.
In early 2006 Dustin Dustin felt it was time to spread his wings and form his own band. He quickly became a success in the local honky-tonk scene, playing almost seven nights a week for several years.
2016 brought the release of Dustin's first major recording project. The six song EP "Country" comes stacked with three songs penned by Dustin along with songs written by Michael McDonald and Don Pfrimmer. It also contains one of Dustin's favorite Conway Twitty songs, the 1972 number one, "I See the Want in Your Eyes".
In April 2016, his single, "Whiskey Makes Her Miss Me", debuted on Texas Regional Radio Report. In two shorts months the single continues to climb the charts, has more than 60,000 views on YouTube, and is becoming a honky-tonk anthem across Texas and Louisiana."
