I can be reached at 505-270-6202. I'm kind of a spiritual troubadour, who sees the gift of music as a way to bring a little more love into the world. So, I'm seeking like-hearted musicians.

I'm creative versatile guitarist with an unique playing style..good ear, love to accompany soulful vocalist and/or be part of a cohesive band.. Not sure what form that will take.. but I'm open.. My synth ax allows me to play strings, horns, flute, keyboard and other instrument parts as well as guitar. I'm great at playing fills and licks in many styles..like having another voice..

Influences:

Too many to mention...but..
began playing folk, R&B, Everly Brothers, Motown,Latin and Spanish.

I was touring guitarist for The Tokens (Lion Sleeps Tonite) for 2 years;

Was into James Taylor, Joni Mitchell, Richie Havens, Van Morrison, The Doobies, Eagles, Crosby, Stills and Nash, Marvin Gaye;
Later, Mark Knopfler, Fleetwood Mac, and Vangelis and Flamenco; Also Allison Krauss, w/Jerry Douglas, Keith Urban, Brad Paisley and contemporary Christian artists such as Michael W.Smith, Sela, Gateway, David Crowder, Nicole Nordeman, Fernando Ortega, etc.
