ABOUT

I'm a blues based rock guitarist with 35+ years experience with playing lead guitar in bands of various genres. I enjoy playing blues, blues based rock, funk and fusion. The band I had been playing with recently broke up and I am hoping to begin a new project. We were playing high energy modern blues. I was very much enjoying playing that genre of material and would like to continue to do so. The recordings in my profile were recorded at home by myself using a Roland BR600 and are not recordings of the previous band.
