Just turned 30, and have been out of the loop for a few months. I am a dedicated father of two boys, and a dedicated husband. I have been singing and writing my whole life, but finally put it together about ten years ago. I have been with a few different bands, which all disbanded due to moving, or personal/creative differences. I LOVE to joke around and have fun, but I do take music very seriously. I dont enjoy musicians who cant lighten up enough to enjoy what they are doing, and dont work well with others who are selfish about their drug use, or who use music just to get women.
I like to practice AT LEAST once a week, but would love to go for two, or a lot of times just have a private writing session with guitarists on a whim. I have spent time recording in a studio, and I thoroughly enjoy it, even if it is a lot of work.

Influences
I have SOOOOO many influences Im not sure where to begin. I love jazz. Jazz to me is the core of my being as a musician, and I feel that it opens up so many different types of gateways for something new, big, and epic. I love progressive music on a well managed level, and enjoy all types of rock, and a lot of the older blues artists as well. I would say that Im a psychadelic minded person, and am extremely influenced by that as well.
