Influences
I would say that my influences come from various classic rock from the 1960s and the 1970s. From the 1960s, I would list various bands/musicians from the British Invasion with the Beatles as my favorite band; other favorites would include Herman's Hermits and The Monkees(though they wouldn't be classified as a British invasion band). I'd definitely put the 1970s Glam Rock as a musical influence with the Sweet being my favorite band--as a result of their being a musical influence, I attempt to utilize both instrumental and vocal harmonies and arpeggios. Other favorites include T-Rex, Suzi Quatro, Wizzard, and various other musicians/bands. In addition, as a result of a past trip to Memphis, TN, I tend to add blues to my own original compositions because I've witnessed the effects that performing them has had on audiences.
