ABOUT

I've been playing since I was 12 except for a 10 year period when I burned out musically. Picked it back up over 15 years ago and found I play better than I did when I was a kid. I'm not a flash player. More in line with the influences listed below. Solid though with good melodic instincts. I started playing with Jimmy Davis in highschool and we continued together for about 10 years. Played various gigs with Mark Collie, River Bluff Clan, Nexus, Decision, Debra Dejean, Rebel Yell, Bandana and others. I've played small clubs, large venues. Now I just want to play. I've got the gear and the time. Let me know.
