First and foremost I am a born again Christian. I believe that Jesus Christ saved me from a life of slavery and I will NOT play any music that will blaspheme the Father, the Son or the Holy Spirit.
I'm a 37 year old, disabled veteran. I had multiple surgeries in the military but I have no physical limitations. I spend most of my time playing out melodies that come into my mind, and there are plenty. I have only recently started writing music after over 20 years of playing. I feel that God has blessed me with a talent. I think it's about time I put it to good use.

Influences
I grew up playing a combination of classic rock, punk and alternative music. Im my 20s I got into island music; artists like Jack Johnson, Donovan frankenwriter, Jason Mraz and sublime. I still really enjoy that style.
Mid to late 20s I learned a little bluegrass and folk. I enjoy artists like Doc Watson and John Prine. Around that same age I got really into the Beatles and learned many of their songs from during and after they were together. Like music from Wings, John and George.
I have always likes SRV and Hendrix. Also John Frusciante has been a major influence. Which should go with out saying that I've spent a lot of time learning and empilenting their style into my playing.
