Lead Guitar.ABOUT
The song, "Kiss Away", was done using my old Korg iS35. The song "My First Love" was recorded with my Korg PA800.
I grew up playing the "Golden Oldies" in the 60s. I have played some country, though quite awhile back. I'm the type of musician that, if I know how the song goes, I can play it. I'm an effective 'fill-in' musician and I can also sing backup.
I started playing the Accordion at the age of 10. At the age of 14 I started my first band. It wasn't until about 5 years ago that I traded my accordion in for a keyboard. Although my accordion was MIDI I wanted more realistic instrument sounds.
Since the 80s I've only played in Church Praise and Worship bands. My greatest thrill was playing in our church band with Phil Driscoll and Sion Alford!
I don't smoke, drink or do drugs. I won't play with anyone who does drugs. Smoking and a LITTLE drinking I can handle.
I'm retired from the Postal Service and no, I haven't killed anyone ... yet. I also develop and host web sites for select clientele.
You can hear some of the stuff I did with one of my bands here: ://jukebox45/soundbytes.html
