I try not to limit myself in what types of music I can play. I didn't mark Hip Hop/Rap, but I guarantee I could play it well!! My main interestsin playing is Blues,Classic Rock,Southern Rock,I like good old country, and blues and sometimes putting a little more rock edge type twist on it. I also love working with good song writers, and I have spent time in one of the nicest studio's, maybee the best in Oklahoma, and had a band on a well know independent label. And I am not limited to three generes of music, I can also play Funk, R&B, Reggea, Some Latin, some Punk,Heavy metal, depending on who it is whether I will play it or not,Country, Bluegrass, Christian Traditional, Christian cotemporary, some Jazz, some classical, Cover/Tribute,Hip Hop/Rap and some ska.I try to be very versatile.
