ABOUT

I'm an aging hippie, retired and looking to join a band or form one for fun and profit. I'm a Bass player and also play acoustic and electric guitar very well. I made the most money playing with Country bands, and had the most fun jamming with blues players. I can sing and have done a solo act with acoustic guitar for awhile. I fully understand music theory. My background started with accordion at age 8 and I was in school band from 4th grade through HS. Learned Trumpet, French Horn, Piano and Bass Clarinet. Took up guitar at age 13 and the rest is history. Oh yeah, I do custom built guitars and perfect player setups too.
