ABOUT

I am a singer, songwriter and guitarist.

I enjoy rock and roll. I am influenced by the radio - alternative, pop, punk, heavy blues, jam bands, rockabilly and “classic” rock.

I have experience playing and recording both in multiple bands, and with other local artists.

i have played live in a variety of venues across West Michigan in local bars, rock clubs, festivals, live on the radio - and in larger venues like Bells, Arcadia Creek Festival Site and Wings Stadium.

I have posted a collection of demos I recorded in my home studio, with me playing all the instruments. BUT, I really want to play in a band.

These songs could be a good starting point, and in the future we could write and record some new songs to add to our set.
