I pursue music as my primary profession - because I love it and really think it's a blast!

I'm not interested in exclusively being some one's 'back-up' musician per se -
I prefer musical democracy & equality & loathe situations that are too 'one sided' bandwise -

However, I'm happy to work as a sideman for the right artist(s) - so long as you are kind,
non-egotistical, relaxed, (not Type A), honest & look out for the highest good of those willing
to support you (i.e. financial compensation, mutual respect & loyalty)

While I function as an independent artist, I truly enjoy friendly & courteous collaboration.

I believe a musician has a personal responsabilty to work at their craft
and not just to feed on the abilities of others - Not only is mutual respect
highly important, but also the concept of each musician being an advocate for the other;
as we all need encouragment & support
- We're all in this together -

I respect every person's right to pursue creative paths, and also believe
that great art is built on freedom, purpose, quality and friendship.
