Biography:
Shooter Jennings (born Waylon Albright Jennings in 1979, ) is an American country music singer, the only child of Waylon Jennings and Jessi Colter. His middle name comes from his father's drummer, Richie Albright.

Shooter Jennings lived his first few years in a crib on his parents' tour bus. By age five, he was playing drums.
