ABOUT

Who I am: Non-dreamer, non-beginner. Playing for over 25 years. Aged, but not old! Have experience with studio/multitrack recording and gigging regularly in various NYC venues from when I was a member of active original music bands.

What I’m looking for: Escape the basement to collaborate with other musicians as lifestyle now allows more time to do so. Looking for talented and experienced songwriter, or existing band with same, to form a long-term but casual original music arrangement.
