ABOUT

I have been playing bass for over forty years. For many years I worked with the Mercy Street Band, producing two CDs, Blue Light, and the Long Road Home. We played a mostly blues/jazz/rock mix.
For a few years, I played with a band called: Madz & the Ladz.
I recently put together a new band called, COBALT BLUE. Cobalt Blue is a rock band with deep roots in the blues. Two guitars, bass, drums, keyboard, horn section, harmonica, & vocalist.

Influences

My influences in music go all the way back to the late 1960s. I moved through Rock like everyone else, playing with local bands. By the 1990s, I grew tired of Rock and was listening to Jazz & Classical music. I have now gone back to my roots in the blues.
