ABOUT

Musician with big ears, flexibility on multiple instruments, a fair amount of experience, and an increasingly annoying 'day job' who aims to form, join and/or occasionally play with (and//or otherwise support or explore) a collective of musical bad asses who want to push themselves to other levels whilst serving others via great gigs, solid recordings, sensible (and strategically deployed) vlogs, podcasts, crowd sources, etc. Originally from Massachusetts but been in Hawaii for 23 years.

Influences

All over the place, but ultimately a rock-n-roll animal (DNA level) with a solid foundation in old school, jammy rock stuff and/or hook-filled pop-rock released anytime between [1955-1995?], but with a much wider range of influences including old school jazz, roots-rock-reggae, minimalist composers, Gamelan (Bali - Jawa), etc. Definitely been going through a Dead phase for the past few years (as the music returned to me), so I may lean into some of that material initially, if/when we get together. Who knows? But I usually find a way to fill the hole(s) within the music and get things moving, be it on guitar (1), bass (2), drums (3), keys (4), etc.
