Violin, Vocalist - Baritone, Vocalist - Bass, Harmonica, Piano, Keyboard.ABOUT
I was born on the day of the First American Moon Landing. I have been playing piano for over 30 years. I have been playing harmonica for about the same length of time. I'm a violinist turned cellist.
I love to sing, have a rich upper baritone voice, as well as a deep mellow as a cello bass voice.
