Paul Michael Hanyok is a retired Maryland Game Warden with 25 years of boots‑on‑the‑ground experience in the woods, fields, and backroads of the state. Instead of writing a book about the cases, characters, and encounters he lived through, he turns those stories into outlaw‑country songs. His music blends rustic humor, Appalachian grit, and the raw truth of a warden’s life — modern country storytelling rooted in real wildlife law enforcement work and real people.
