Hello ! - I love living in Summit County and playing here. Thx for looking at my page!
Brief Bio: I played professionally during the 'disco' 70's-80's. We did well, worked solid for 10 years, and cut an album that unfortunately never got released. I had the best piano teacher in Denver (Ted Alexander) and also spent some time (not enough time!) with Dale Bruning, a very accomplished jazz guitar player/ teacher. My music endeavors put me through college at D.U. and then I went into the corporate world when starting a family whilst also playing music in church and with a performing gospel group. After retiring up here in Summit County, I've had the opportunity to play with several really good musicians and look forward to continuing to do so.
Regarding My Music list on this site: On all tunes I play all instruments (drums manually input via keyboard with some minimal looping), and bass played via keys.
Thx for visiting my site.
