ABOUT

I'm looking for singer/songwriters, lyricists, musicians to write and/or jam and create music. No beginners please.
     I'm a professional guitarist, BMI affiliate composer & publisher. Born and bred in NJ, I worked as a guitarist, composer, bandleader, teacher and transcriber for over 25 years in the New York City metro area and touring the east coast. My music has been played on TV, radio and the Web. I quit actively performing when I was paralyzed in 2003.
     Moved to the beautiful hills of Kentucky from NYC area in 2008 with my wife and dogs. Still compose and record my original music and work on projects and teach. I like to read, collect apps and sit on the porch and watch the grass grow and our dogs play.
