Twenty years of experience playing folk, Americana, bluegrass, folk-rock, alt-country, oldtime, and alternative music. Solid rhythm guitarist capable of taking on light lead work. Songwriter with around a hundred titles to my name. Looking for a collaboration, be it studio, live, or a combination of both. Would love to meet a kindred musician/songwriter to collaborate with on original work primarily. Heavy experience as a substitute or full-time rhythm guitarist/harmony and lead vocalist in oldtime dance bands, folk and bluegrass groups. Have been in two locally/regionally successful groups. I'm easy to work with and don't have a big ego about things. My main desire is to have fun making good music with passionate musicians.
