ABOUT

I am very influenced by New Orleans music. I grew up on blues and country. Ray Charles and Dr John are some of my favorites. Been full time for about 3 years, and I have been playing for 11 years focusing on songwriting, harmonica and piano mainly. Been struggling in the music industry and feel like I’ve been in the same spot and playing the same places for awhile now and want to progress and really take things to the next level. Wether that means playing with someone else or my own music.
As long as it’s something I love, I want to make it happen.
