ABOUT

I'm 39 now and I've been playing shows out since I was 18. I can play just about any cover tune but i love creating original music and performing live shows that capture the audience. Not just playing to play but to perform, to gain the attention and the feedback from the crowd you're playing in front of.

I am seeking a band that can practice at my place once a week (usually Sunday) and play out to a paying gig at least twice a month on a Friday or Saturday preferred.

I have been in several local touring bands in Baltimore and now here in central PA. I have recorded in a couple pro studios (Omega and Sheffield to name a few) and played at some of the coolest venues in and around Baltimore, Harrisburg, York and Lancaster (and even some venues that i have no idea how we got there).
