Influences
A good song for me, is like a poem with wings. So, Jason Mraz, Joan Osborne, Dave Brubeck, Doc Walker, Neil Young, Jean Luc Ponty, Tracy Chapman, Laura Nero, Tom Cochrane, Mary Chapin Carpenter Janis Ian, Malissa Etheridge, Jose Feliciano, Avril Levigne, James Taylor, John Prine, Randy Newman Eminem, Todd Rudgren. Rock bands; Fountains of Wayne, My Chemical Romance, Rage Against the Machine, The Doors, The Beatles, Byrds, Zombies, Kinks, Guitarists Paco de Lucia, Manuel Barrueco, Composers, Terrega, Albinez, Via Lobos, Beethoven, Robert Crumb. I just like music in general, if it has Harmony, Melody and Rhythm, and particularly if it has words that mean something. I especially like music that speaks to the problems of social injustice.
