A call from Dad… Heart and Soul #8sunday #snippetsunday

Setup for this snippet: WIP from Heart and Soul. This is a snippet from my new 'rock star romance' that I'm working on. It's in the very early stages.
For Father's Day, I thought I'd share a snippet with call from Maverick's father.
This is Maverick's POV.
***
Maverick answered his phone even though he would have liked to let it go to voicemail. "Hello, Dad."
Joseph Declan Sullivan or Sully, as he liked to be called, lived in L.A. and produced big named bands and artists alike. He was boisterous and opinionated and he treated everyone like a potential client, his son included.
"Hey, Mav. I'm wondering if you have an open spot for a new band I'd like to promote. Thought we try something small and move onto bigger and better."
"Bigger and better?" It rankled him how his father dismissed his place as insignificant.
"You know what I mean, Mav, don't get all putout," his father drawled, allowing his true Texan accent to surface as if his insults would sound less offensive with a twang.
